Angela is a prolific local artist working in a variety of mediums, but primarily focusing on acrylic and watercolor. She can be found working in her home-based workspace, Bliss Studios, or out in the community of Springfield, Missouri, enjoying coffee shops and hiking trails :) She shows regularly at Canvas Gallery on South St, but enjoys expanding into other venues, such as Q Enoteca wine bar, Gelato Mio, and Unity Of Springfield. In fact, stop by Gailey's Breakfast Cafe (on Walnut St) in May to see her latest work!

C. Patrick is a writer, photographer, and teacher who has traveled around the world teaching college English classes onboard US Navy ships. He has written a travel/humor newspaper column since 2003 and has had several gallery shows of his photography. In addition to the Creative Wanderer retreats, he has been busy lately writing novels, and working on the production of an audio play, "The Adventures of Lady Starr, Space Ranger", that he wrote.

Angela and C. Patrick are excited to welcome you into the fold of creative Wanderers. We look forward to seeing you at one (or more!) of our retreats!
