Collage Journeys in Vermont: The Overview

As I mentioned on Tuesday, I rented a car and drove up to Vermont for Jane Davies' Collage Journeys in Vermont workshop.  

There's a lot to share, so I thought I'd do it in installments.  Today I'm going to give you a brief overview of the event overall.

The workshop was held in rural Vermont.  No cell phone signal and plenty of wildlife.

I stayed in a beautiful house...

...high up on a hill with an enchanting view...

...and two of my nine fellow students: Cathy and Sharon.

Class was held in the Rupert Fire House.

We enjoyed the company of all three fire trucks except when one was briefly removed for a bath.

The fire trucks also proved useful for storage.

There was much painting and collaging and creative play!

Every day at noon a siren would sound in the Fire House, letting us know that it was time for lunch.

Then it was back to work, until it was time for dinner.

Each night a drive home down a pitch black windy country road.

Each morning a sense of renewed energy for that day's artistic adventure!

I'll share more of the journey on Thursday with a bit about each of my fellow students.  And next week I'll share some more of the work that I did and talk about what I'm taking away from the experience.

Thanks for stopping by!
