Friday was a glorious day. I got up early, got in some quilting for about an hour and then headed down to the Visions Art Museum in San Diego to participate in their monthly critique group. I have not been able to attend for quite a few months as it has not fallen on my "off Friday" schedule. I had a couple of pieces I wanted feedback on and I was not disappointed with the quality of the comments. One piece is "in work" and one is done, but did not feel that it truly was finished. I got some great input and suggestions on that piece and will be working on updates to bring it to a completed state.
Not only do I benefit from the input and the camaraderie of the other artists, but I get totally inspired by what they are working on and bring to the critique. The critique group is overflowing with talented people and I am blessed to have a group like this that I can go to for feedback and inspiration.
I have no photos to share as my pieces are slated for an exhibit in October. The other artists work that was shared is also in work for specific exhibits. I know that is a little disappointing and I love to share work when I have permission.
Critique groups are so beneficial I do suggest that you try to find a group in your area or start one up. It is especially important if you are an artist that works in solitude. I drive an hour to the Visions critique, I think it is that important.

Saturday Email Fiasco
Saturday was a total lost day on the computer. I was doing some clean up and research and discovered that the email addresses on David and my business cards are not linked correctly to our website. It seems that when Google went from the free apps to the paid business apps our emails (David@ and Trish@fromedge2edge.com) someway got dropped. It was supposed to be a grandfather account, but I spent all day on it and only got the Trish@ working again.
If you have been getting bounced back emails from us, please use the Contact Form on the website or use the Trish@ email address. I sincerely apologize for this inconvenience and any frustration it caused. Heaven knows how frustrated I was yesterday trying to fix it when all I wanted was to be in the studio working on my art.
