Veronique was very helpful and accommadating. Her retreat was wonderful, quiet, minimalist comtemporay with views of nature from every window and yet just minutes from downtown Austin, shopping, restaurants and events. Her sculptures are amazing, very organic; and we could see she was beginning another very large scale piece in the back yard. Snacks, fruit, light fare and beverages were provided by our hostess and greatly appreciated. I highly recommend her Artist Retreat to all.
