YART 2010: behind the scenes in pictures



Sweet, Exhausted Stella with her new toy from Aunt Robin.
What a weekend! Very magical and delightful.
I'm so glad I was a part of it, and to think I met even more bloggers in person as well as other non-blogging wonderful friends.
It was my pleasure to spend this time with you.♥
Here are just a few pics behind the scenes because yes, I always forget to take photos during the event. 


party goers!
Hi Pam :)


pets allowed, all shapes and sizes!



Oh so shiny sista-shoes!

Beautiful Tess, much-loved member of an amazing family ♥



Hallowed-Hall



mesmerizing melodies



Cyrano??


or Pinnochio?

(doesn't matter. He stole my ♥)



Heading home on the back roads and finding painting inspiration...





...and objecting residents! He mooed as if he were a watch-cow!
(look at the evil eye I'm getting.)




And finally, back in my studio a gorgeous afternoon glow to welcome me home.
This was one helluva beautiful weekend!
Thank you KJ and JB♥

  7. Great photos of the weekend. Everyone had a different take on what to take of the weekend. I love it. but did anyone get Suki in the photos? or am I just not seeing her? Looks like it was a blast.

  8. Babs~having Chewey there made me think of you! It was great having her there.
    And Miss Stella, what a doll to put up with all the hullaballoo! That's how she is though, perfect in every way. And yes, they are the hostesses with the mostess!

    Puro~I must come by and see you two! Thank you for your loyal visits :)

    Cris~I didn't always have my camera handy and it was hard to leave your table too often with all the people that were milling about and browsing. I sure hope SOMEONE was able to take her picture. It was such a pleasure to finally meet her.
    I hope you're feeling great!♥

  9. Lo, Your behind the scenes photos are great! Not many of us took photos inside, I didn't. - Oh, and I missed my chance to snap a shot of Suki. - It was wonderful to see your eyes... and the rest of your face in real life 3-D.

  11. oh Annie, you have NO idea how much we tried to find the time to call you! And when we finally all caught our breath it was Sunday morning and Robin said you were already at work :(

    I know this is a small consololation but you were very missed and very much thought of ♥

    I'm sure Robin will talk to you soon ;)

  13. Great photos Lo! it's been so much fun to peek at all these (and everyone else's yart photos).
    Your table looked amazing, i would have had a hard time choosing a favorite work of art!

    And lolo, i saw photos of you, i saw the beauty that's you, the wonderfully generous talented kind you.

    I am so glad the Yart was such a smashing sucess.

  14. I love the metallic shoe photo! You did a much better job than I of getting people photos - that is just not my strength. But I think I have about a week's worth of posting i want to do with pictures from the trip.

    It was so great to meet you!

  16. But I told Robin I had Sunday off?
    Misunderstanding. Kj and Robin did call later Sunday. I knew Saturday would be too busy. I don't blame you :-), it looks like there was a lot to do! I thought about you all, the whole weekend, and that is a BIG consololation. Love.
    xoxo

  18. Lololoooo.. you did an outstanding job of capturing Friday and Saturday's "happenings" at #9! Each photo brought it all back to me.....and I am so happy you took the Raven-balloon photo before he "melted".

    Love the silver shoes shot...you must send it to me and also the "Three Sistas" Shot....(just for my eyes..)

    I had a long nap today and I have the faint return of a voice... so hopefully we will talk tomorrow.

    I just don't have the words - but you know what my heart is feeling.
    Think of your Avatar.....and that's the emotion I feel - to a t!

    Love,

    ♥ Robin ♥
