Well here I am in Orquevaux, France. I was accepted to this artist residency over a year ago (to my surprise!) and here I am now. Amongst amazing creatives from all over the world, I’m sharing meals and conversations with wonderful painters, writers and musicians. We’re getting so spoiled- we don’t have to think about meals or cleaning our rooms- all we have to do for 3 weeks is create. So far I’ve

made 4 complete paintings, and about 25 flowers (a first for me, as I’m not drawn to painting them! I’m not sure where that came from!). We have a couple of trips planned, one back to Paris (I spent 4 days there before the residency, and took in as many museums as time allowed) and one to another charming little village. Looking forward to tonight’s costume party and karaoke in a few nights- I’ll finally get to hear these wonderful musicians live!
