I
just love teaching doll making classes, both in person, and online! I come across some of the nicest and most
interesting people that way. I also get
to travel and do a bit of sightseeing when I go to different places to teach.

During
the class I taught in Indianapolis this fall I was hosted by the most lovely
couple, Julie & Ron Gausvik.
Not
only did they welcome me into their beautiful home while I was there to teach
they also took me on a tour of the local sights during my stay.

They
even took me to the Indianapolis Canal where I was able to do some plein air
painting! This is the painting I did
there and the unfinished one is what I am working on from it in my studio.

They
also took me to see the Indianapolis String Quartet which was absolutely
wonderful. Of course I had to do some
sketching of the String Quartet on my program.
This is a sketch of them that I completed when I got home.
