As reported by Lynda Berman:
Michele Hamsher came to Athens last Monday and she gave Jeff Chaddock this lovely set of watercolors as a thank you for letting us do plein air in his gardens.
It is rare to catch Jeff at home but we did and he was delighted with the gift.
Hope you enjoy seeing the works as much as Jeff did receiving them:
Sue Ayers, Suzanne Mitolo, and Alice Tavani visited Sherrie Dennis in Charleston, SC for spring break.
We had a chance to see some of our favorite spots like the downtown Charleston market and the Angel Oak Tree. This tree is thought to be 400-500 years old and said to be one of the oldest living things in the country.
We also had some new adventures visiting the Boone Hall Plantation and Gardens where we saw nesting bald eagles and the Charleston Tea Garden. We sure learned a lot about agriculture this trip and loved seeing our dear friend!

What a great time we had in and around Ft Myers, Florida! |     |
It's December 1st and I'm reflecting on this past year and all of the personal growth and recovery I've been through and how my art and connections with my art family have remained a constant throughout this crazy time.
Personal Art Reflection: My new studio space was finally finished in early June and Bella (my mini-aussiedoodle) and I have moved in and are both enjoying our time relaxing and creating. (She mostly just relaxes and supervises the artmaking.) I'm wrapping up a series of works that I started in January of 2021. These pastels range in size from 5"x7" to 11"x14" and are a journey through the emotions of the year. Colors and mark-making were inspired by feelings and at times, memories of places I've visited. I'm getting very excited as I gear up for my first personal exhibition in January! Now that the work is (mostly) created, it's time to matt and frame it for the exhibition. I'm really looking forward to this opportunity.
Art Family Reflection: I just participated in my first NAEA Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion Liaison meeting and it was so inspiring to be talking with other art educators from around the country who share a passion for making art education "better". I am honored to be one of Ohio's two liaisons for this position and am definitely gearing up for the work required of this position. It will be exciting to see where these ED&I trainings leads our organization. Who knows... maybe I'll be able to create some ED&I training sessions to share with everyone!
In closing... take time to reflect this month as you prepare for the new year. Who knows what 2022 will bring!
Artfully,
Carrie
