The Art and Colors of a Far Away Land
with Helen Denham

Come away with me to a far away land! Let your imagination roam free as we re-live my journey through
a slideshow presentation. Be inspired by the rich landscape, colors and culture of Indonesia where creativity abounds!
 

Helen is  a mixed media artist who loves finding ways of incorporating new ideas and experiences into old creative passions
which include jewelry, journal making and found object art. From Boston, Helen has 20 + years in the Human
Service Field working with blind and multi handicapped children.

Afterwards, meet your teachers, mingle with other students, and move around the room to view class samples displayed
by each teaching artist. It's also a great time to share trades and make new friends! List of attending artists TBA.

Trades
an integral part of most art retreats, trades can be anything you might like to create and then trade with other attendees.
While typically a trade is something you created, it can also be objects to be used in art. Past trades have included: ATCs,
Moo cards, charms, small bag of ephemera, popcorn & candy. We'll give you a blue star to place on your name tag so that
Traders can easily spot one another. Trade anywhere, anytime - and don't forget to trade with your hosts, Chuck and Linda!
