Now and Then.
Journal from studies in France.

2021 notes: In 2014, and again in 2016, I was able to go to France and study with several master artists. In 2014, it was with Ted Seth Jacobs, and in 2016 with Michelle Tully at Studio Escalier. Because of COVID, Studio Escalier began online instruction in 2020. So, I’ve been able to study with Michelle online since then…but with no weekend trips around the country. Still, I’m glad to be able to continue studying with Michelle.

Ted, a great teacher and artist, celebrated his 90th birthday when I was there in 2014, but his health was in decline and he passed away several years ago. It’s was a great learning experience for me. I’m so grateful to have had that time.

When there, I took lots of photos and travelled whenever possible. The photos and related comments here are simply reminders for me of these excursions and serve as a type of journal and a memory keeper.

Friday Morning Market Day

April 08, 2016

Friday and Saturday are off days—no class. And Friday mornings are 'market day' in Thouars—about 20km away. Several in the group have cars, so everyone who was interested had an opportunity to go to market today. Self control was a problem—it was hard not to buy more than one could use in a week.

Apologies for looking like a 'food blog' today, but it was all too beautiful to pass up.
