I've been to Omega to work several summers and loved it there, especially the Sanctuary, the arts, the lake, gardens and grounds. The people are fun, talented and interesting. I'm teaching college art in MD now and working on my own painting. I love travel and will go to Anam Cara Artists' Retreat Center in Cork , Ireland in August to paint for 2 weeks. this year, i went to Esalen Institute in CA for the first time,after seeing Marion Woodman at Pacifica Graduate Institute. I'd love to meet more artists who travel and paint, we could meet at Omega and paint the Hudson River Valley this fall, In April, I'll go to Kripalu to see Jean Shinoda Bohlen from CA
