My Friend Heather

(1) likes to take classes taught by rockstars such as Stephanie Lee with me, and not just because she likes to set things on fire:

(2)  brings me the latest Nick and Nora pyjamas from Target when we get together to do art workshops and retreats together.  These ones are called "Veggie Bunnies", for obvious reasons:

(3) makes me laugh by trying on silly masks in Target:

(4) made this FABULOUS travelling art journal kit in a lunch box (and then swiped back the bottle of gesso):

(5) bought this beautiful pair of earrings made by Ms. Stephanie Lee:

(6)  doesn't always like to have her picture taken:

(7) introduced me to these two lovely ladies, Anne and Bette:

(8) created this cool moonscape on her metal book cover:

(9) is my BFF:

and
(10) is married to a lovely man named Andy O'Brien, who drove an hour each way to take us out to dinner at O'Malley's Pub last Saturday night (probably not too much of a hardship, since it gave him an excuse to take his shiny new Corvette out for a spin) and who springs from good Irish stock, in case you were thinking maybe this blog post didn't have any connection to St. Patrick's Day.   :)

Speaking of shamrocks, another thing I learned at the ArtBLISS workshops last week is that 4 leaf clovers grow in bunches, so if you find one, keep looking around nearby, there will be more.  (Sharon, is that why Bobby finds so many??)
