Gorgeous day for an Ohio winter hike. More over in story. 🥰 @bogeysurf @mcbogard #buynothingday

I’ve been watching posts from @kakawdesigns and @cardamomcollective in recent days as they experience the colorful culture of the Guatemalan countryside through the lens of #textiletravels.

Their gorgeous photos of Antigua and beyond have me feeling super excited about my own trip there next year where I’ll be hosting a small group of travel journalers. In our workshops we will learn how to slow down this rich travel experience by engaging a small book where we will collect drawings, do some watercoloring and gather overall impressions of our time together.

I can’t say enough about how working in a travel journal enriches the experience of traveling. As we begin to revisit this brave new world of ours once more, consider a new approach to traveling. Learn a bit of basic drawing and painting. Learn to really see what’s there. Slow down and truly engage in a country other than your own.
Beginners welcome (in fact I really love working with beginners! )
Two weeks in late Feb, early March. Come on along!!

Winter’s kisses come to call.
Frosty jewels adorn us all.
Deeply down our roots doth grow.
Hunker down, await the snow.

Adoration for all things autumn and winter. A time for hunkering down with tea and art supplies and a fair bit of dreaming and wish-making.
Wishing you warmth and comfort on this chilly morn. If you have an opportunity, take a closer peek at the frost, there is deep beauty and universal structure to be found there.

Comfort in the cosmos.
momentary lessening
of fears and foibles.

Stillness in shadow
pause for hope.

We set the alarm for this morning’s eclipse. It seemed an important thing to do. A reminder of our smallness in this universe. Or as a dear friend put it ‘A relief that the big stuff is beyond me and a reminder that nothing/no one has more power than space/time/universe stuff!’

Truth!

Love and wonder. A holy noticing of otherworldly machinations. A pause for hope.

Antigua dreaming.

A #sketchbook #drawing, done from memory, doesn’t have to be perfect to conjure the feel of a particular day, in a particular town.
Just a bit of light and color and a dose of whimsy (like walking the goats down the street, say for example) can do the trick.
Create your own special memories of #AntiguaGuatemala in a travel journal next spring. Beginner sketchers and experienced artists all welcome. We’ve arranged the lodging and know all the best places to sketch. Join us in 2022.
Week 1- arr Feb 19- dep Feb 25
Week 2- arr Feb 26 - dep mar 4.
You can come for one or both weeks! Spaces still available.
~a note for total beginners: yes you can come along as a flat out beginner. I have many teachery tricks up my sleeve and will have you making artful impressions of your travel experience on day 1. If this experience calls to you, go for it!! You won’t be sorry. ❤️
