Hunting and Cooking Wild Chanterelle Mushrooms!

December 30, 2009 foreverbird 1 comment

So yummy! Thanks to David for showing me how to hunt for chanterelle mushrooms & cook them into a creamy pasta dish.

I got to see a great sunset! I want to paint this view!

Great clock! (at the home of my friends who introduced me to mushroom hunting.)

Places where people gather and enjoy unique forms of creativity.

I like creative places. There are 2 HUGE mixed use art facilities near me in California. They are still in the process of being built… and I think there is a need for more of the same. Hopefully the success of these first art communities will inspire developers to build more.

The Working Artists Ventura (WAV) project by PLACE (Projects Linking Artist, Community, and Environment)
The Tannery Arts Center in Santa Cruz

Please let me know if you are familiar with any other cool artist communities that offer permanent and commercial space…

There is this book I have called, Artist Communities. However, most of the places in this book do not offer permanent or commercial spaces…

Color Pencil Sketch from the Patio

I’m house sitting  a mini farm for a few weeks. There are 2 dogs, 2 cats, 1 fish and 13 chickens. It’s a beautiful place to be! The woman who lives here is an artist. At the entrance to her studio was this poem: The essence of life is to care, the secret of life is to dare, the adventure of life is to learn, the challenge of life is is to change, the joy of life is to love.
