Blue Egg Omelet





Once again the Blue Eggs gathered. The heat was on at the home of pastel artist, Cathleen Waldrop. Eunice Holland's brush soothes the canvas with images of musical notes. Susanna Wilson's graphite sketch hit a home run. Sheila Robinson's new adventure began on canvas. Ridgley Nash's wise intuition continued to encourage the creativity. Dawn Jacob's fast brush whisked closer to completing another creation. And, as always, Jessie Schmitt was channelled to enhance creativity while Laura Gibbs was excused to participate in a workshop to paper herself in collage. Are we cracked or cracked up? Until neggst time...
