You created a nurturing environment&lt;br /&gt;in which art and spirit are nourished and fed. I felt deeply happy&lt;br /&gt;being in the space of other artists creating. The atmosphere was&lt;br /&gt;playful, energetic, warm, curious and full of sharing. Thank you for&lt;br /&gt;the good food Ella it was delicious and for letting your gallery be&lt;br /&gt;transformed into a painting studio. Molly thank you for sharing your&lt;br /&gt;art work, you literally open up your book and share your art secrets.&lt;br /&gt;In so doing you pass on ways for others to connect in a fearless way&lt;br /&gt;to their own richness.&lt;br /&gt;Thank you, thank you.Love,Dana&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dank voor gisteren. Vanmorgen weer wat omgebladerd vanwege het drogen.&lt;br /&gt;Grappig om te ervaren hoe je telkens weer anders aankijkt tegen de&lt;br /&gt;dingen die je soms wat bewuster en soms heel reactief gemaakt hebt.&lt;br /&gt;Groeten,Mark&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Overigens: het werk dat ik bij de workshop van Molly gemaakt heb was in mijn ogen zo mooi en goed geworden, dat ik van plan was het te verwerken in mijn installatie in de Oude Kerk. In een heel klein onbewaakt ogenblik is de tas met het werk erin in de Oude Kerk gestolen! Een tas die ernaast stond met daarin een foto- en een filmcamera hebben ze laten staan, dus de dieven hadden wel verstand van kunst....hartelijke groet en fijn weekend,Rik Spann&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dearest Ella,Thank you for such a wonderful day at the workshop.The soup was the best so filled with love.You and Robert are wonderful I am infinately grateful to you from the bottom and top of my heart.
