Art Of Tracy Verdugo Blog

Hola chiquitas! Trying to remember to check in here with you all and just realised at 11pm that I hadn't!  Here's just a little glimpse of a day of magic and incredibly beautiful scenery!  After two days of rain and wind the sun came out and mi amor and I headed South to the mystical ruins of Tintagel in Cornwall, heralded as the birthplace of King Arthur.  After Tintagel we visited the incredibly beautiful historic fishing village of a Clovelly in Devon. We walked up and down ancient stairways, through narrow cobblestones streets, over beaches strewn with millions of rocks, into the magical Merlins cave..... A day to remember indeed!  Missing our sweet girls every day but grateful to be on this journey with my love.  Wherever we go the kitties find him for a little love. He has a lot to give ❤️ Noches lovely ones. Leaving this beautiful place tomorrow Brighton bound 😄 Lots of love Tracy 💕💕💕💕

Hello my little buttercups!! I know, I know........ its been a while between drinks, um posts! (she says while remembering a long pint of Guinness recently downed in an 800 year old pub)...... and I know this to be true, because as I type, I'm hearing me own voice in me own mind, read out these words with a distinctive, if a little mixed up English accent!! Yep that's right, we're finally here on UK soil, soaking up the scenery and history after a rigorous and wonderful tour of the U.S which saw me teaching twelve 2-5 day workshops in 12 weeks!!                                So I know you will understand when I tell you there wasn't much time for blog posts in the beautiful US of A but I had a fabulous time as always and felt my heart expand time and time again as I shared the Paint Mojo experience with students and friends, new and old! And so her...

Hello my creative adventurers!! Long time, no see, in this bloggity part of the world! I hope all is wonder-filled in your lives and that your troubles are small and few,  or even non existent! my sincere apologies I entered the zone of no return once more, by not posting for so long,  that it became too overwhelming to share all the amazingness,  so I just didn't. Things are settling a little now though, and I am back on board, ready to pull up a chair,  share a cuppa with you all and fill you in,  (in bite size chunks~goodbye overwhelm!)  on happenings past, present and future!  So today, lets talk TRAVEL!! The real voyage of  discovery  consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes. Marcel Proust Over the next few weeks, each Thursday, we will do some dreaming together as I introduce all of the longer retreats I will be facilitating in 2015 (and begin to plan for 2016) and ...

 Hello lovely friends! To celebrate the closing of the old year and the beginning of the new I am giving away this little elephant painting to one lucky reader. Just leave me a note in the comments below and let me know one of your intentions for 2014! ♥ Clarity. My word for 2013  How did I go with it? At first I thought not so well.  I couldn't even really get clear on what the word meant for me.  What my intention around clarity even was.  Not a good start right? Seems like I'm somewhat of a back to front person. I often figure out the answer long after I've completed the action... I think its what makes intuitive painting such a perfect practice for me, not having to make a plan but seeing the perfection in the plan after all is said and done. Kind of fumbling my way along a LOT,  jumping in before I know how to swim and then figuring out later how exactly I managed to not drown! canvases are painted and then the co...
