Still catching up on posting about last week’s adventures. One of the many highlights was the trip on board the Pabbay Lass with Rachael and Morag of Leverburgh Sea Safari . Travelling just with the basics- sketchbook and a couple of drawing tools - the movement forces you to capture the essence.

The trip was fantastic and will feature again in next year’s Sense of Place experience (which is sold out already).

What an amazing trip! Sacred Geometry & the Scottish Landscape with Melissa Potter and Reni Gower. Nine days full of creativity, inspiration, connection, laughter, play, nature, history, music, great food and so much fun. I feel incredibly fortunate and grateful that spending all this time in the company of wonderful creative women from all over the world (guys are welcome too, of course 😉) is my actual job!
The Inveraray Inn was the perfect venue - it wasn’t unusual to find one or two of the guests (or tutors) in the studio at midnight doing art 😉.
