This is a picture that was taken of me at a art journaling party at Fort Worden Port Townsend WA. I am standing next to some guy!
Every year, the first weekend in April there is an amazing event called ART FEST. It is held at Fort Worden and about 600 artists from around the world show up and take amazing, fresh, innovating art classes. These are not your grandmothers water color classes! I guess you would call it Alternative Art but after attending for the 5th year in 2008 the art seems the norm rather than the extreme.
In 2006 I was interviewed by Andrea Kreuzhage creator of the Art Film 1000 Journals. I was so nervous I couldn't even get the token statement to come out right! THIS IS AN EXPERIMENT AND YOU ARE PART OF IT. My segment hit the editors floor...thank goodness! I did have the wonderful opportunity to contribute a page in one of the journal in 2006 and had the good fortunate to be at the right place at the right time and work in another one at Art Fest in 2007.
The reason for adding this to my blog is that everyone who reads this should link to the 1000 journals blog and web sites. It is a fabulous project all put together by Some Guy.
Loved checking out your blog, and loved the jewelry, espicially the birds nest! Will see you at artfest perhaps!
