Leah, Sarah, Sharon (2nd cousin to Sarah) and I all went to Middlebury to meet and visit with Rosemary Schmucker, a successful painting in acrylics artist, whom we met at the Shipshe craft fair in October this year.
Sharon did not know what to expect. I told her to get her drawings, a book of them, and she did, to bring along. She did not know this lady would be Old Order Amish. The girls learned about color theory at Rosemary's elbow as we sat at the table in her garrett with the north light, and Rosemary shared with us how to shade without using black.
I want to visit again and have a gift for Rosemary.
