Jewelry Artists Retreat, more photos!



Here is the view from the back of the house.

Lovely, isn't it?

The lake is gorgeous and so quiet this time of year. I am sure in the summer it is full of boats, and people, water skiiing, music, laughter....

but in the fall, it is VERY peaceful.

I like it.



I keep receiving requests for images of the people from the retreat - with names. As mentioned ad nauseum, I'm slowly editing photos, some are blurry or have horrid lighting, but I've found a few that I think I can safely share.

Despite some poor images, between yesterday and today - you've got 13 faces and names.





this is arrival day, not everyone was there yet - but we have L to R

Nancy E., Sue, tiny-head-Wendy, Ann, Janice, Deborah, Nancy V., Saree











To the left is Lisa, with tiny-head-wendy.















This is Saree, hard at work with her flexshaft.

One of her goals for the week was to know her flexshaft and the attachments better.














Sue - always smiling. :)

(Despite horrendous tool issues this year - and many trips to the welding shop to try to fix the torch)












Angela - Muscling her way through a tough solder job!
















Ann overseeing the etching

(get your face out of there girl - watch out for those fumes!)














Janice and Christy take a break to smile for the camera, then.........









BACK TO WORK!























Rina and Deborah - pushing each other to move outside of their respective comfort zones.














Nancy E.

This a perfect photo of her - she looks serene, no?

That's Nancy E. - gentle pace, gentle tone....steady does it - quietly working all day.

Definitely a southerner on Southern time. :)





Last post you saw Luetta and Linda.

So that wraps it up!

More photos yet to come of tools and projects.
