Once Upon a Dream was a Dream!!
I have returned from Asheville, N.C. and the Once Upon a Dream event. Everything about the trip was dreamlike. The fall colors and cool temperatures were splendid! Jennifer Hayslip went above and beyond in presenting this gorgeous art event. I was thrilled to celebrate my birthday at the beautiful Claxton Farm with old and new friends. It was a week end I shall never forget! A few of these photos provided by fabulous Sonia Crouse!

OH and did I mention ALL INCLUSIVE!
YES an ALL INCLUSIVE art retreat!
I have marked my calender and I am counting down the days!
Beauty in Blue is an artistic weekend retreat celebrating springtime in Texas!
This will be a small intimate gathering so be sure to save the date so you don't miss out!
The main focus of this weekend is to" escape and create" with an intimate group of artful minded women. We will relax, unwind and indulge ourselves in beautiful projects featuring shades of blues, creams and whites.
This all inclusive event will be held at the charming and lovely Whitworth Ranch Retreat. The retreat is a ranch style home built in the late 1800's and sits on 50 acres in Scurry, Texas which is about 50 miles southeast of Dallas. All meals, accommodations, instructor fees and projects are provided with your reservation. Most of the photos above are from this lovely retreat!
An extra special highlight of this event will be a day trip on Friday to Canton, the world's largest flea market! We will be hosted by the amazing "Girls gone Junkin'" to shop, do a make and take project, and enjoy a light lunch!!
ALSO I am pleased to announce " The Beauty in Blue Portrait Event" to be held following the art event throughout the week of April 1st. Children, couples, families...this is the time and place for a SPECTACULAR photo session! I will be photographing in the stunning blue bonnet fields, styling the sessions with my vintage clothing and prop collection!
