We were so delighted to have dinner tonight at
Norene and Greg Smiley's house. The artist
Louise Cloutier, and poet Richard Dittami came
for dinner too, and we had great conversations
over a delicious meal.
Norene's work has inspired me since I first saw it
at the Chatterbox Café in Pugwash, Nova Scotia.
I first saw Louise's work last year in a show in Oxford,
Nova Scotia that combined her work with poetry
by Richard. It was a wonderful exhibition and
collaborative venture.

Have a talking to the artists you love day.

There is nothing like spending time with painters! Wish I could be there for the workshop!

What a treat to have had two visits with you and your husband on this short trip of yours to Nova Scotia. Such a bonus to see that you are sharing Norene and my image on your blog. You are a true champion for artists and art enthusiasts.
Hi Louise,
It was so good to see you again tonight at the dinner at the Lobster factory. The memory
of that delicious meal with wonderful company will last in my mind and heart as one of
the most fantastic times of this amazing year!
XOXOXOXOXO Barbara
