What a week. There are simply no words to describe all the changes I've gone through... Had a couple of mystical experiences, and am filled with the electrical current of creativity.
Florida was awesome, of course, but what fun to be on a trip with someone like Prairieson! I've never had a better time on a trip in my life.
My day with Robert Mickelsen was unbelievable. I can't wait to crank up the torch and do some blowing and sculpting. And I think I'll be passing up The Gathering in favor of the GAS conference. He is an incredible artist and human being. And a real hottie :-)
I wasn't going to take any beads with me on my trip, but on the way out the door I grabbed a large handful off my work table. Sold them all without even trying! Tatanka Beads is now my Florida retailer, in case anyone lives near there and would like to take a peek at some of my work.
I discovered Art Glass House, and think I'll be buying all my supplies from them from now on. It was HUGE, and it was amazingly cool to be able to see stuff when buying instead of working through a catalog.
It was wonderful to get home to my kitties, and in two hours I can go pick Macy up from boarding. I'll be picking Cosmo up Monday.
Missed you guys, but not much. LMAO! I was too busy learning and having a blast!
