I'm Laughing, Sharon!
Yes, I am soo glad you nagged. Because I would NOT have attended had it not been for the encouragement here on the forum from all of you.
And then, after making the decision and sending my money in, I came so close to cancelling when the builders finally closed on our townhouse a few days before the workshop. But Marvin gave good council, "I think that what you learn in the workshop will have profound influence on the work you want to produce..."
And then, when I decided to ignore the moving mess, the total chaos of my life, Marvin replied,"You may have learned more making this choice then most people will ever learn about portrait painting. In making the choice to attend you have demonstrated the greatest attribute needed to be a successful and accomplished artist. There will be many times you will feel thwarted by either your mental attitude or by seeming insurmountable circumstances. Your own willingness to surrender at those times is your lifeline in those instances."
So, enough about my experience. I happen to know there are one or two "lurkers" here who also attended Maavelous Maavin's workshop. They produced some great paintings too! Come out come out wherever you are...
