Bali – we're here !

Yes, I’ve been planning this trip and blogging about it for a while now,

We are finally here in Ubud making linocuts at the Arma Resort.
The water gardens and fountains here mean that you can hear water wherever you go, it has such a

calming effect.
Yesterday  we talked about different approaches to linocut and and about different artists and how they had approached the medium.
People started planning ideas and drawing drawing in their sketchbooks from all around the gardens and from their imagination. In the afternoon we went to the Arma Art Museum.
Today some people were continuing with their drawings and ideas while others were ready to draw directly onto the Lino. While two people got up to carving and printing! We have a great group sharing and discussing ideas. Tomorrow is the free day some people are doing a cooking class with the Chef at the Arma Resort others are doing the Ubud downhill bike ride where you get bused to the top of the mountain and then go on a leisurely down hill cycle through the Ubud countryside I will let you know how it all goes.
This has to be the best place I have ever taught a linocut workshop
