The art journaling workshops in the Bilthovense Boekhandel were great fun. They were part of an Art Weekend called Uit De Kunst where painters, photographers etc held small expositions in stores throughout the city center. In Holland art journaling is a rather unknown phenomenon.

I have been listening to another great podcast recently called Artists helping artists, where two very merry American painters -Leslie Saeta and Dreama Tolle Perry- share marketing tips. (I always listen to podcasts while folding the laundry or chopping up the carrots.) Dreama often talks bout the ‘camaraderie’ that sprouts at such places.
I had wondered if that were true.
And yes, it was.
Both workshops lasted twice as long as the planned hour (and could have gone on for much longer) because everyone was having such fun and discussing so many things – I even noticed some women exchanging addresses afterwards. How nice!
All thanks to Ike Bekking, the owner of the bookstore, who likes for her store to be a fun and lively place!

Ha Kitty, Wat ziet het er ontzettend gezellig en aanstekelijk uit je workshop.
Misschien ga ik tijdens ons weekje Cornwall ook eens een Art journal uitproberen!
Dag Kitty,
Het was enorm inspirerend zaterdag. Het smaakt dus naar meer. Graag een aantal data waarop we nogmaals een workshop kunnen doen met jou.
Graag dan een hele dag. Twee uur gaat zo snel.

The workshop was wonderful and very inspiring and me too,I would like to do another one someday.
I immediately ordered a set of stamps on the internet and will be experimenting with textiles.
thank you,Kitty.
Wow, looks it was a great time for all! I wish we had more intimate art weekends like this in our town. Great idea!
