Artsy-fartsy

paintandsupplies

Earlier this week I took one of my personal days from work (I get two a year) and spent the day elbow deep in paint. It was fantastic and just what I needed.

The class was held at a cool little shop/studio called Artistree. If you are local, they have a fun list of classes you can take. There is an amazing amount of art, most of it from local artist, as well as art/crafting supplies for sale. This store is CRAMMED full of things. Every time I turned around I saw something new.

Thanks so much to Nancy for having Frances at your space. And thank you Frances, for having a one day art class here in town- those 6 hours inspired me more than you know.
