July, 2015
Because I will be leaving tomorrow and will not return until July 3rd, I am publishing the July edition early.
My intention was to present my collection series this month but on the 20th of June I had a 'Gathering of the Goddesses Shrine Party' to honor the Summer Solstice. So many beautiful works of art were created. I decided to share them with you instead.

It was a very special day. Fourteen women gathered to create an homage, an altar or a shrine.
I hope you enjoy their creativity!
I did not have the opportunity to photograph everyone and some shrines were not photographed as they were not completed.

Kay was still working on her shrine...we wish her well.
I hope you have enjoyed the change of pace in this blog. There is nothing like the camaraderie of
a group of creatives gathering to share a special event.
Until we 'create' again, I will close.
You may find me on Pinterest and soon an updated website.

Oh, this is such a lovely post Gayle! I liked seeing all the different ideas and creative solutions. Hopefully you got around to the eating after all the contemplation. :)
