journalfest 2010


what a great way to spend a few days (especially when one's birthday falls right in the middle)...


so was journalfest 2010...another wonderful teesha and tracy moore art retreat held at fort worden in port townsend, wa.

along with us regulars - janice, ty and marcia, and me...andrew joined in on the fun and became the newest member of house 9E.





all three classes were terrific! first there was roxanne padgett with her painted pocket journals. we painted and stencilled fabric with gay abandon. then we turned our fabric into two fun little journals.


next up was liesel lund and her fabulous travelling pocket journal. there was only six of us in the class plus liesel. it was a really fun, fun day. the energy was playful and light. thanks for setting the tone, liesel...and loved the end result!



last but by no means least, was ingrid dijkers and another one of her fabulous creations...a tunnel book - "through the rabbit hole"...with ty and marcia. I continue to enjoy working on this project since getting home. love the tenniel images and the whole structure and feel of the book. i have only begun to start doodling and there is still more collage and journalling to follow.


the masquerade party was also fun...the band surrealized was in the house.
