Create Explore Discover Art Retreat 2012 - I'm Teaching!

I am so thrilled to announce that I will be teaching at a marvelous retreat in Lake Tahoe this fall! Create Explore Discover is a retreat for 40 lucky women looking to uncover or rediscover their creative spark. The locale is simply gorgeous. Come and enjoy a relaxing weekend of making.

I am in amazing company with retreat instructors such as Lisa Congdon, Mati McDonogh, Jen Lee and Liz Kalloch and one of my favorite folks, Alessandra Cave. Such wonderful, inspiring and talented women to learn from. I adore this painting of Lisa’s. You can go paint with her!

Or, join me! In my workshop, we will enjoy a wonderful knitty weekend! We will make either the mobius cowl above or this simpler version below, you choose! The version below is perfect for very beginning knitters. You’ll have a brand new cozy cowl, just in time for cold weather. Plus, we’ll review more than four great knitting techniques including a provisional cast on, a three-needle bind-off, invisible seaming, and some lace techniques over the three days.

A retreat like this is such a fabulous way to treat yourself and connect with like-minded women in a meaningful way. Sarah Stevenson, the founder of Create Explore Discover, is warm, encouraging and just so lovely.

The below photo is by Alessandra Cave. I took a course from her at the Makerie two springs ago. She is the one who took me from automatic to manual and made me fall in love with product photography. To top off her talent, she just couldn’t be nicer. You can come take photos with Alex!
