Last Saturday, January 27th was a warm winter day in Minnesota. I traveled to Lanesboro to pick up some art prints, from the Lanesboro Arts Center, to use with my art students. And it became what Julia Cameron would call an "Artist Date." An artist date is an activity done solo to look at art, be in nature, or do something to fill up on beauty and breathe in the good air and see new things.
I took a few pictures around this beautiful little town located on the Root River.
I took a walk up a steep hill to the golf course and found some ice along the way to crack. Oh, that is one of my favorite things to do! Crazy, but oh so fun!
Can you see the water trickling under that thin sliver of ice? The water was running all over, tickling and rushing. I could see it and hear it. Mmmmm, sensations of lusciousness every where.
Here's the road I walked up and down.
"It's Your Planet; Love It! "
These benches were all over down town made by the girl scouts.
"I only want to see you dancing in the purple rain." Prince
I found some delicious coffee at a natural foods grocery on the corner of Coffee St and Parkway.
And a delicious turkey sandwich at the Pastry Shoppe.
"You're the strangest person I ever met, she said & I said you too & we decided we'd know each other a long time." Brian Andreas, Story People.
Commonweal Theatre Company, fine professional theatre--amazing productions.
St. Mane Theatre, part of the Lanesboro Arts Center complex.
Black Crow Art Gallery
Val is making a basket and lining.
It was a day filled with love. And it did fill up my well to nurture my artist self. How do you fill up your creative self? Leave a comment below. I'd love to hear from you.
