Loved all the ladies' work too. <br />I often find that I need to let go of a lot of pressure (I mainly put on me myself) first, when finding myself out of my comfort zone. I am more towards abstraction, but with being out of comfort zones this makes no difference at all. I have learned (and it took me quite some time) that it helps me to follow a model first to "feel" what there is to a special technique or style before I can adapt it and integrate it with my own world of shapes, textures and colours. I always fail when I try to skip this step. <br /><br />Loved this post and I am so happy that I have found your blog. Learning about you and your artistic journey that is so closely connected to your life in general (as is mine) is always a great pleasure. Will try to visit your blog more often in the future!<br /><br />Greetings from Vienna,<br />Claudia xClaudia N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03577948083701178316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664926996764785692.post-68793623574461088922014-04-03T16:15:53.305-04:002014-04-03T16:15:53.305-04:00Looks like a super weekend... some creative pushin...Looks like a super weekend... some creative pushing, lots of creative play, and time with old and new friends.

Glad you had such a wonderful time with Jane, Judy and "the girls"! I have to admit that I, too, am somewhat geographically challenged, but am so glad that you decided to go with Judy and that we were able to enjoy talking over a wonderful dinner! See you in October, "teach," if not before!! Mwah!
