I’m Catherine G. Larkin (Cathy), The Artful Traveler. I’m passionate about helping people unleash their creativity. I’ll be connecting you with opportunities and inspiration to dive into hands-on art and get creative close to home, or wherever you roam. I’ll be writing about, and providing links to, gorgeous vacation destinations where you (or your child, or your mom, or your professional artist friend) can combine a weekend or weeklong workshop with cool travel opportunities. I’ll also report on books, tools for artists and writers; and tellyou what to expect at some of these workshop destinations.
I’ll also provide links and info on local (to you) art organizations where you can take weekly classes to get started, or to polish your skills.
I’m a writer, potter, photographer, freelance writer & PR professional, as well as an arts instructor at a local arts center for 17 years. Everyone can use a little help being creative from amateurs to professional artists so Let’s Get Creative!
