Huge changes in my life. In the fall of 2018 a dear friend convinced me that it was time leave Staten Island. It was a good home for almost 40 years, but my weaving addiction was taking up all the room (and then some) in our tiny 2-bedroom 1950s brick ranch.
My husband and I landed in a 1910 New England Farmhouse with TWO studio spaces in the "city" of Rockland, Maine. Culture shock to the "nth degree" We each have the space to settle into the next chapter of our artistic lives with no excuses!
We had the great good fortune of having a little over a year in this glorious MidCoast Maine town before COVID19 hit everyone between the eyes. We met wonderful locals along with weavers, beekeepers, retirees and expats from Boston and NYC. It's an interesting melting pot here on a much smaller scale.
We had to close our little AirBnB rental until the pandemic is under control. It's something we miss as we had great fun meeting people from all over the world.
As we practice living in the moment I have gotten back to weaving and experimenting on the looms after the huge transition of moving to another state and a new way of life.
Gotta get back to winding my next warp. Onward.
