the in between


It has been a frantically busy week around here with the wrapping up of the stampmaking series and preparation for the holiday workshops - 50 children over 4 days - oh my!
We have also had sweet 2yr old birthday's, friends to welcome home to stay with us, a wedding to attend and a short country stop over! Sickness has seeped into the household and put a dampner on things, but generally speaking it is joyful energy that fills and fuels us in these days!
The creativity that has inspired our current classes has spilled over into our everyday as we return from nature walks with hands overflowing with materials - moss, pinecones, leaves...

Our in between days have been spent, gathering, preparing, dreaming. We took a trip to GOMA today for the girls to experience a little 'surrealism' - there was some wonderful making! We always finish our visit with a quick hello to 'Roy and Matilda' the Art Gallery's resident mice (there is a great story book behind these sweet charicters, produced by the gallery) and some sketching of our current favourite paintings...


Now our WEAVE+WONDER workshops are in full flight, I can't wait to show you some of the magnificent work the children are producing, here in the coming days! Check back soon....
