Rowe is indeed a special place enhanced by a rich canopy of stars. I was walking back from a midnight touch drawing session last Saturday night with 2 others. Looking up at the sky and seeing the milky way illuminated it was as if the milky way herself was touch drawing the heavens.  Rowe is a hard place to leave so much that I forgot my coat its hanging in the farmhouse luckily they are mailing it back in a week or so. A part of me it still at Rowe bundled up in my coat spinning around in the middle of the road seeing and feeling all those glistening colorful stars and copper crescent moon after a session of witnessing souls drawing their touch....

The retreat at Rowe was my first experience of TD with Deborah....and it was indeed amazing. I felt more alive and in tune with my creativity, than I can ever recall. The clarity I derived from my drawings and the purpose found therein...was phenominal & profound. It's definitely not the kind of feelings you wish to relinquish when it's time to go...and certainly not easily forgotten.

 

Claudia, it's wonderful to share this experience with friends and family. What better gift could there be? The more you continue to share, the more comfortable you will be with facilitating. Sounds like you're off to a wonderful beginning.

 

Bette, I live on Cape Cod....not exactly next door...but not out of the realm of things for some drawing sessions either. Maybe it's something we could explore further?

My sister came over yesterday and we played together a bit. She enjoyed the process and it was good for me to practice facilitation in a small way!

The experience at Rowe doing touch drawing was amazing. Deborah was amazing. Rowe was amazing. Thank you!

I live in the greater Boston area and I am wondering if there is anyone else nearby who might be interested in getting together to draw.

Hi Claudia and Welcome!

The TD experience at Rowe, was absolutely extraordinary. Although I attended in 2007, it was definitely the catalyst to my facilitation also. I had done so in the past, but the passion sparked there, brought renewed inspiration and resolution to devote more time and effort to sharing this process with others. This is a wonderful and resourceful community with a wealth of information. Very happy to have you here, congratulations and I wish you the very best.

Hello, Fellow Roweians,

 

I am still riding on the depths of our weekend, plus, I have decided to facilitate!  I will start by inviting some friends to share the experience in the next couple of weeks. Also, I have put a proposal in to the Oncology Support Center where I have started doing some bereavement work - I conducted my first workshop there today.  Hopefully, I will offer an introduction to Touch Drawing in the spring which should lead to an ongoing group.

 

Rowe was an amazing experience. Thank you all (especially Deborah!)
