I’m not in Ohio any more . . . . .

Well Folks, as you see I have made to Tucson, Arizona and it is stunning!!! I arrived yesterday morning and spent the afternoon with my Hostess, Tonya taking in the awesome sights of the Saguaro National Park. It’s prickly but fabulous! The temperatures are a wonderful 70 degrees. A bit different than the freezing temperatures of Ohio.

I will be teaching my brayer workshops today and tomorrow to the wonderful stampers of Arizona, I cannot wait to get started. 🙂

Oh my gosh, these photos are incredible. They almost make me want to run off and create a card with cactus. Of course the sky would be brayered …

I could you almost be envious! We lived in the Cottonwood/Clarksdale area for a couple of years, at before returning to the Great Plains. Beautiful, but I can do without the lizards and such! Thanks for sharing the pictures!

That looks great. It’s warming me up from the Ohio temps – lol! I think it’s 32 today, so maybe not technically FREEZING, but it’s still cold enough to make me want to be in AZ.

Dear Michelle,
two Years back I spent together with my husband a 2 weeks holiday in Arizona, coming all the way from Switzerland. We also visited the Saguaro N.P., just beautiful. WQe fell in love with all of Aritona and hope to return there soon. Thank you for the wonderful pictures.
Greetings from cold and snowy Switzerland,

Ok, you were right! After taking your Brayer workshop all I see outside and in pictures is the sky! Your Arizona pictures are beautiful and my head is swirling trying to figure out all the ink colors I am going to use when I try to duplicate the skylines!! 🙂
Hope your trip continues to go well.

I visited Saguaro National Park last year — and didn’t believe until then that there could be a “forest” of cactus plants! Thanks for sharing your photos!

Loved the advanced work shop in Tucson. So what kind of camera do you use to capture these pictures? We just don’t take the time to notice our surroundings – to really deep down ‘see’ it as told in your pictures.

Thanks so much teacher for sharing your talent with us.

from a long time ‘zindorfian’ fan.
