I love art that provokes a memory. Maybe it is a memory of a childhood, or a place I went. Sometime it is just a piece I picked up somewhere along my travels that bring me back to the adventure that I once took – as if it were yesterday. I might not be able […]
Had a great class with Thomas Mann yesterday! It was a small class, so there was a lot of individual attention. Sarah, the woman taking the photo, was kind enough to work with me most of the day (trust me, I needed extra care!). We made a sampler of different types of cold connection techniques. […]

I laughed out loud this week when I read what a person wrote under one of the free downloadable tutorials we had posted on Facebook. “NTS” it started, (“note to self”), “NTS, less downloading and more creating!” Isn’t that the truth? With all of the free downloads, free videos, free, free, free, you’d think I […]
