Back from the edge

Well I am back creating. After depression brought on by Nursing my Mum with the help of my two sisters at her home until her death. I could not get motivated at all to create anything. My stuff just sat in my sewing room and my painting shed. I would walk in ,look around pick up and put down things and walk out. With the help of my good friend Mary Tressler Doll artist extrordanaire I went to CIF inin Alburquerque new Mexico WOW I had a ball met some lovely women who are so talented and made a doll with Mary's help.So there will be pictures and some chat about what I am doing. I am currently reading all I can about face painting for cloth dolls as I am not crash hot on this.
The trip was ok and there was turbulance on the plane but it did not bother me,this was my adventure and even though I was going alone and some of my friends thought I would gget lost I sort of did at the Alburquerque airport I missed the hat and as I had mislaid a suitcase. the one with the good stuff not the clothes, I was a bit distressed but I soldiered on and finally got to the hotel.There it was all good.I am going to bed as it is late and I am up early as we are having visitors tomorrow. it's cold here in Australia well it is in Victoria where I live so they should stay home ,but we will have fires good food and wine and fun planting 40 native trees and shrubs which is why they are coming as they bought them to put around our dam.I will take photos. Night all.
