Dangerous Curves

I am blessed to know many people who make art. Today was spent with my old friend (said tongue in cheek- we are a couple of old broads now!) Marni Lawson, who has made and taught watercolors for as long as I have known her, and before that too.
We both served on the board of Upcountry Artists in the late 80s. When I was President, she was Program Director, at a time when the group had vibrant programs at each monthly meeting.When we both lived in the Farmington area, it was usual for us to get together often for lunch, and today these old dogs proved that the old tricks still worked just fine!
I have always appreciated Marni's creativity, and dry wit, and friendship. Though we have both seen our share of health challenges, the Creative Life continues.
