I've just returned home from my sturt teaching stint
here are a few snaps of arty bits around the school
most of the time I was too busy, or too tired,
or it was too late or too early (eg too dark) to get pics

I loved the bearded irises in garden beds everywhere...
and the walkway to sturt gallery was a delight
(as were the crafted treasures inside!)
time flew by and before we knew it -
it was time to show off our handiwork & skidaddle for home...
here's a peek at our informal show on the last day...
check out the amazing work of some very hard working
and totally delightful students....
phew!
ps - highlights of the week included ...
* the yummy food on offer every meal
(yumbo scrumbo vegetarian dishes!)
* terrific company of fellow tutors staying on campus - a diverse bunch of arty-crafty folk
who were AMAZINGLY talented & just delightful to chat with
(hugs to ALL - esp tracey, caren and suzanne)
* the diverse & interesting bunch of students trying their hands
(and hearts and minds) on new things...
big thanks to my mob (T & C & G & R) for their generosity of spirit

* Dale and Mark from Sturt - who are tireless workers
& passionate advocates for craft and education -- and soooooooo organised!
if you get the chance to attend Sturt
(as a student or tutor)
I've got two words of advice
DO IT!

Sturt is one of the most beautiful places to be ... at any time. I am so glad you have enjoyed this experience Ronnie!
ReplyDeleteLooks like it was a great place ronnie and your classes were terrific. Hope it wasn't too cold - I'm freezing up here in Brisbane, don't know that I could cope with Sturt in winter!
ReplyDeleteit's a splendid place to be...especially when encampled in one of those sweet cottages.
ReplyDeletethose iris make rather nice marks on paper, by the way.
