Are you craving an art retreat?

Seasonally, I really want to go to Haystack  Mountain School of Crafts. I have volunteered the past couple of spring sessions to clean up and get the place open for the summer.

Do you crave an artist retreat?

 

What do you love about a art retreats/workshops/conferences?

These are the things that I love about going on an artist retreat:

  1. Get up early in a beautiful environment
  2. Have someone cook all my meals
  3. Learn from other artists
  4. Have a break from TV, telephone and internet
  5. Make art my priority

I am working on the details of creating an artist’s retreat online workshop.

I am so excited about creating content that you can use to enjoy a printmaking retreat in the comfort of your own home.

It will be:

  • inspiring
  • action packed
  • affordable
  • structured but flexible

If this sounds interesting to you, then please tell me what would be important to you.

What would you need to create the time, space, structure and goals for a printmaking retreat for yourself?

Tell me in the comments or in an email. Linda@LindaGermain.com

Failure is a gift

That is one way to look at it. As you experiment with inks, papers and methods you could see less than perfect results as an opportunity to:

  • learn
  • create
  • change
  • invent
  • be original

This video is about using the Createx Acrylic Color inks with the homemade glycerin and gelatin plate for pulling monotype prints.
