Well. I ‘m sure glad you asked, ‘cos we have two workshops (we being me and the chaps) and here they are
This in the glorious wild lands of Northern Tuscany.
And then for the creative soul searchers, we have an amazing event
In Montefiore, The 4th of our Starstone Adventures
Both in June. Heady times!
Starstone Montefiore Creativity Workshop June 16 weekend
This is Annabel, who has fully integrated with a painting. It’s incredible what Belgian girls can do! The weekend really was an explosion of creativity and between us we created not only paintings but 100 Haikus which we swiftly dispatched to California and the Universe in general (aka CTI’s creative artists forum).
It never ceases to amaze me, the power of group activity.
Sea air, new friends and good Italian food. But most importantly of all, a profound reconnection with our creativity.
A Haiku for you…
Let me help you see
Suffering is not needed
You are really free.
Next workshop Sept 15

This is a new painting I struggled with, possibly because I was snowed in for five days with no heating and no electricity. It’s emotional (probably)

Dear friends,
I am running a Creativity weekend in March, another experimental workshop for a small number of people; similar to my session last Spring in Appignano.
It’s experimental in that sense that I want us together to try out new ideas, strategies I will use in Starstone sessions later in the year.
The venue will be our home at Sambuco in Le Marche and for a small group of about 8 people. It will be hands on stuff; making a mess, playing, lots of fun and laughter (guaranteed).
As well as playing like children we will also walk together, cook together, relax and delight in each others’ company.
Dates; Saturday and Sunday March 19th and 20th
The total cost is E125 to include meals, accommodation and workshop.
For those coming from UK, extra days B&B can be arranged. Ryanair flights are less than E20 single at this time.
For those of you who don’t know Sambuco and our beautiful area of Le Marche, here’s our Sant’Ippolito website http://sibillinislow.com/Sibillini_Slow/Welcome.html
I do hope this finds you well and I send you my very best wishes for the New Year.
Michael

Ci autogestiremo, parteciperemo attivamente a tutte le attività , faremo un sacco di disordine e giocheremo , il divertimento e le risate saranno garantite Ma, oltre a giocare come i bambini cucineremo e ci rilasseremo e faremo delle belle passeggiate , sarà un vero piacere stare in compagnia e ritrovarsi bambini.

I painted this in my usual unconscious fashion, only to realise I’d been having a conversation with Jack about the volcano in Sicily (Etna of course)
