"Spring belongs to those who love the heart of spring; they plant seedlings, talk to the trees, and tend to the flowers thirst for rain." This quote is from my perpetual calendar by Flavia.I read the daily saying each morning and it's a great way to start my day and attend to the present season.
ArtFest brought me into contact with artists from all over the world and US. I met with one of my favorite blog buddies, Lorrie. Shared meals and evenings with PAC sisters Tammy, Debi, Tory, Dayna and Suzanne and the Gussies- Catherine, Celeste and Michelle. Marilyn came from California. Thanks to everyone for making a great experience.
My favorite class was "Story Painting with a Punch" with Gina Armfield. We used our own photographs in our paintings. This six-inch Buddha statue sits on my desk. He reminds me to live in the present, be calm and mindful.

Your watercolor sketch really conveys that feeling of Spring, Paula.
It was great sharing some of our AF time together. So fun!
I love your buddha painting! Can't wait to hear more about it, and of course your flower sketch is lovely!
It was fun getting to meet you and spend some time with you Paula. Artfest was a great adventure for me, I loved it. Lorrie
