In the springtime of 2003 one of my dreams finally came true and I traveled to Italy to attend a 2 week workshop at the La Romita School of Art in Terni, Umbria. I fell in love with Italy. The friendly people, the food, the hill towns and architecture. We had spent the day in the little town of Spoleto and I spotted this beautiful and peaceful Monastery form the window of the bus. The light was breathtaking. I got to spend 2 glorious weeks exploring the country with my childhood girlfriend, Linnea, and another 2 weeks studying art. When I got home I informed my loving husband that, "If you kick the bucket first you are going to have to visit me in my dreams in Italy...I'm selling everything and moving there!" Enjoy! ADOPTED
