True happiness is found in seemingly unremarkable things.
But to be aware of little, quiet things, you need to be quiet inside.
A high degree of alertness is required.
Be still. Look. Listen. Be present
Eckhart Tolle
Dear Creative Friends,

The next time I write to you it will be from Cape Charles, Virginia. I expect that sitting on the dock in the photo above will be one of the ways I find the quiet inside that Eckhart Tolle speaks of. We do not yet know when broadband internet service will be installed at our new home, so I will have good reason to spend most of June outside with my camera.

In the meantime, a short note between packing boxes!

For those of you that like to plan your months in advance, I wanted to let you know that I have opened registration for my July and August in-person retreats. The beautiful St Francis Springs Retreat Center is open for guests. So if you are comfortable being in a group of up to 18 people and have been wanting to gather in community again, I'd love you to join me for creative time this summer.

In July, I'm offering VISUAL JOURNALS AS CREATIVE THRESHOLD.
This is a four night, five day retreat. Click on the image below for more information.
In August, I'm offering A SPIRAL JOURNEY focusing on SoulCollage® and the Labyrinth. This is a three night, four day retreat.Click on the image below for more information.
I am also teaching in two online offerings, Pull Pen Paint, and Energetics of Art 2. You can find more information on these below.
Thank you for being part of my creative community. And lots of love to my Charlotte community for allowing me to grow into my creative self over the past 24 years here. It has been a beautiful place to be. But change is another form of growth, and being closer to nature and the ocean will allow me to deepen my connection to my soul.

I hope you are finding wonder in the awakening of the greening world of Spring. I'll be in touch again in the summer!
With Love and Hugs
Catherine
