Hi, my dear ones!
How was your week? Mine was quite busy again - I was travelling to Athens, Greece to teach my classes there - first time ever!

As I said before - I'm blessed with the job which is also my passion. Almost unreal!

Dear Friends, as you all know some things in life come unexpectedly.
No matter how hard we try to predict, prevent and plan - there are some factors and happenings which are out of our control. One of these situations have just happened to me and sadly - it is affecting my travelling and teaching plans for the beginning of 2018.
Earlier this year we've found out there are some quite urgent health issues I have to deal with, and as I learned just recently, my surgery which I expected to happen later in 2018, is being moved to early December 2017. My recovery will take a few weeks and it is in a collision with my presence during Prima Art Venture and Creativation in Phoenix, in January 2018.
I'm writing all that with the deepest regret and sadness - I value personal contact with you all more than anything. I'd love to see you in the classroom and during my demos - there are so many exciting things to tell you about - but this won't be possible this time. I know Prima with their Educators and my Brand Ambassadors will do their best to present my new, beautiful products to you all. I will be doing my best to connect with you all too - through Facebook, Blog, and Instagram and together with my Creative Team we will be spreading the love for art and mixed-media, providing tutorials, demos and inspirations.
I hope for your understanding and best wishes for my speedy recovery so I will be able to join you soon. I'm very sorry to bring this news to you. my apologies for this situation.

I'm very proud to confirm that my Brand Ambassador, Riikka is going to take over my responsibilities during the shows. This crazy talented, sweet and friendly lady agreed to travel so far, teach and demo my products to the attendants of Creativation 2018. I could not even dream I will be so lucky - I'm so grateful for her help! You can learn more about the event here!
Sending you all the best possible wishes and hugs

There is one more important news. Some of you may notice the announcement I've posted about my absence during Prima Art Venture 2018 in Phoenix, and Creativation 2018. It is a very sad moment for me but I have to take care of my health in the coming weeks and I won't be able to travel that far during that time. Here is the full text you could find on Facebook:
