What participants said ...
Here are some of the comments on the experiences from the lead artists and some participants from some of our past Arajilla Artists Retreats:
“Lord Howe is awesome! The workshops were very casual and carefree and we were encouraged to experiment and work on different aspects of art. Of course with Mount Gower as a back-drop we all felt very inspired and I'm still working on my oil painting …. The owners of Arajilla Bill & Janne, were the perfect hosts and joined us for lunches at the studio where we all mingled and got to know each other. Unfortunately it all had to end but I feel that I've gained so much from the experience not only art wise but through friendships as well.” – Participant Rita Sheather, Oct '09
