"Imagine" by sister, Mary Poling

Imagine...
Crashing waves
Warm sand between your toes
Cool breezes
Ocean sunsets
Nights in the studio after a good meal
Being waited on, no cooking or cleaning
Peace
Fun
Quiet walks by the sea

Imagine...
All positive affirmative coaching
Squishing paint tubes
Dabbing brushes in liquid color
Cutting and tearing fabric
Printmaking with fabric, fingers and fruits
Guided meditations that transport you to wonder-filled places within
Writing from the soul
Painting with abandon
Collages with everything and anything
Sightseeing
Shopping
Photography

Imagine...
A renewal of the soul
Returning home, a more joyful passionate person
More confidence
More YOU!

"PORTALS TO CREATIVITY"

Offered by The Three Sisters

Five Days of Inspiring Sessions

on the Breathtaking Unspoiled California Coast

Writing, Journal Making, Painting, Collage, Photography, Sketching, & Dreaming

Sisters, Roberta Sajda, Diana Vorne, and Mary Poling are excited to offer the dream retreat of a lifetime. If you have ever wondered if you have any talent or are creative; if you have ever faced a creative block, this is the workshop for you!!! Do you need some distance to see your way clearly? Have you wanted some time off to renew? Celebrate with us as we each enjoy our innate creative gifts. Breathe deep, and center your focus on your unique abilities as we create together.

NEW WORKSHOPS ARE BEING OFFERED

Work continues at Rodon Studios. This beautiful weather here in Texas (just every other day) calls me away to bask in the sun by the pool! Framing is going smoother as I add to my supply of tools and types of frames.
I changed out some of my work at the gallery. I hope you'll stop by anytime. You are especially invited to First Friday, March 6 from 6-19 pm for wine and our buffet.
I am planning a DRAWING SECRETS WORKSHOP FOR PAINTERS at the gallery in March, please contact me for more information.

Currently, I am teaching a drawing workshop at Cypress Creek Christian Church Art Studio. You are welcome to join us for the last session DRAWING THE MODEL, Weds. Feb 27th. Register at rodon@flash.net to save your place.

Framing is Gradually Getting Done

Six down and 10 to go. This bug that everyone seems to have has taken a week of my life. But I am patiently chipping away at my frame delimma. I disassemble frames and clean glass in the livingroom, and in the kitchen I have the assembly line all set up to reassemble with the right size art. This way I manage to keep the whole house in disarray for weeks at a time, much to the dismay of my patient husband..

Two of my new digital pieces are titled "A Nagging Doubt" and "Evolution of Thought". Hopefully I will get those framed for Feb 1st, the First Friday opening at DaVinci's Gallery.
Can you come? Enjoy a glass of wine from 6 to 9. Hope to see you there.

I have finished two pencil portrait commissions, and they are terrific. Even being under the weather, I can get comfortable on the sofa with my pups at my side and draw for hours. It seems like no time has past as my pencils glide over the surface of skin, little mouths, and eyes effortlessly. I talk to my subjects as I work and I think they like the attention.

I will be at the Gallery all day tomorrow, so stop by DaVinci's if you are near the area.
