A life of building friendships

   
HOMAGE TO BRENDALEE WILSON                     CHELSEA, QUEBEC

DOING MY HOMEWORK FOR TUSCANY AND AMALFI ART WORKSHOP, OCT. 17-31/2015




This past weekend, I visited with Brendalee, a long standing students of mine, and her husband Jean, fresh back from several months in India. I haven't seen Brendalee since long before my trip to Costa Rica, so we had much to catch up on and discuss.



      Brendalee is a painter, a singer and a very very amazing photographer. Her and Jean have travelled all over the world. What was of really keen interest to me besides India, were her photos of the Amalfi area of Italy, where I am planning on taking a group of painters, October 17-31.

      Brendalee is always full of intricate stories to go along with her recommendations and photos, bringing a fuller sense of her travels experience. Since her and Jean travelled to Amalfi recently, I thought she'd be a good source of information and enthusiasm. No disappointment there!

     So we hunkered down, with a bottle of good wine, our computers and shared our stories of travel and adventure. All the photos on this post come to you via brendaleewilson.smugmug.com


     There are many other fantastic photos to get you revved up about this trip, so look her up. Other ways to see even more of Brendalees' photography and writing, is to go to her blog, brendaleewilson.blogspot.com

      A photographer with an eye, can bring the worlds beauty to our feet. We live in pretty amazing times,
                                                when we can travel to such amazing places, or just look it up 
                 on the internet and you are there!
