Oxbow Friends - Thank you to so many of you who showed up in support
of both Oxbow and Margrit Mondavi, one of Oxbow's founders on April 16th
at the Robert Mondavi Winery
- it was a spectacular evening in every way; the weather couldn't have
been nicer or the setting more beautiful. The event was sold out with
many family members and long-time friends of Margrit, and a sizable
group of devoted friends of Oxbow; and best of all, thanks to Margrit's
generosity and foresight for collecting many works by visiting artists
to the winery over a 40 year period-all of which were auctioned off that
evening-Oxbow was the recipient of the proceeds from the event. Truly a
win-win for all involved!
In the year leading up to Oxbow, I became obsessed with the program, I was entranced with reading testimonials and researching interdisciplinary learning styles. When I arrived at Oxbow I was never disappointed, despite my endless expectations. I will forever cherish the time I spent at Oxbow and the connections I made there. Through Oxbow I was able to hone into the ideas I was thinking about, to refine my artistic process and to see the world in a new light every day of my life. I'm not going to say that without Oxbow I wouldn't be the person I am today, but I will say that without Oxbow it would have taken me at least four years to become who I am after one Oxbow semester.

Oxbow forced me to create, and by creating, I established foundation for my thought.

Artistically, I learned a lot of new techniques and mediums while here. I had access to much more than before and I made the most of it. I tried everything I could and always talked to my teachers and peers about new ways I could make art. Every so often, I completely stepped out of my comfort zone. Experimenting with technique and testing my artistic boundaries has helped me realize how many paths I have to choose from in the art world and that makes me excited for the future.
