Illustration friday," ALONE," plus...Spring and Summer Calendar for arts workshops

mde butterfly 3
Madame Butterfly is what happened when I was ,"ALONE", Ever been alone playing, and wondering if anyone was looking? That is what she is wondering....is anybody looking? my 2nd Illustrator attempt...

I have been compiling lists and calendars for the upcoming raku workshops, kids camps, and private students I am taking on beginning May.
I have a 3-month calendar ready, and it looks full. Wow, is it ever easier to make a calendar than what you are proposing, but I would prefer to be in the thick of it.
In May I begin with adult raku workshops, ( 2 evenings a week) and semi private classes of a 9 week duration, ( twice a week). In mid June I add kids camp, twice a day, three days a week to that schedule, for a month extending into July. After that I will be going to Alaska on the ferry for up to 3 weeks, then back for more classes I have not yet scheduled. Last 2 weeks of August I will take on new students again for fall, begin raku again, and do more of my reiki work. And, of course, my art work will be something I will make sometime….during those busy days.
I am looking for a really nice canopy for the back yard for over the raku kiln (since it ”might rain.”) You think?
Am also considering family backpack trips so that people will know hw to take their kids to places that really count this year, and teaching them skills to be out in nature together appreciating nature, and each other. I really look forward to these weekends this summer.
All in all, it appears that it will be a busy summertime, gearing up to fall, and winter when I will have more time to work with students and make lots of art work to sell come spring.
