A brief retreat

 

I've been at the Lillian E. Smith Center for the past several days for a brief retreat. A R&R for my art spirit, I guess you could say. Rest and Recharge is the way I use retreats. Maybe not so much rest, though. More recharging of visual ideas without much else to do.

 


This spot on the ridge has so much to see and wonder about at every time of the year. This springtime is no exception.




Always a wonderful view from the cottage porch and also looking back at the cottages.


This time I worked with small watercolors at the cottage and used a couple of those to design block prints. I'm planning to use one of these (maybe) as a tapestry cartoon for an upcoming exhibit.



 Printing away at the end of the day and the end of this retreat. Many thanks to Piedmont University and the Lillian E. Smith Center for this wonderful time away!
