Countdown to Odyssey

I can hardly believe that what Aimee envisioned 9 years ago is coming to pass - this week! This will be my 20th calligraphy conference, and each year I marvel at the continuing friendships, the immense talent, and the generous sharing of knowledge and technique. My peeps. This group makes me feel that I could go anywhere in the U.S. and many places in the world and have a friend.

For the last 5 or so years, I have worked for Brenda or John and not taken a class. An interesting way to experience the conference - I get to see all my friends, and not have the stress of a class! This year, I'm working for John and taking Vision Quest with Sharon Zeugin. We'll be painting, journaling, doing a little lettering, and relishing to atmosphere of being with more than 300 like-minded souls.

I'm headed up to Stonehill Thursday, picking up John and Adam at the Providence airport then to campus. I'll be taking pix along the way, trying to give you a flavor of what a calligraphy conference is.
