Anne Willson |
From Wikipedia :: The term “bricolage” is borrowed from the French word bricolage, from the verb bricoler, the core meaning in French being, "fiddle, tinker" and, by extension, "to make creative and resourceful use of whatever materials are at hand (regardless of their original purpose)". A person who engages in bricolage is a bricoleur.
I am a bricoleur. And even though Bricolage is closed :: and I will not be able to pop in to see Anne Willson's smiling face . . . what she taught me will stay with me for the rest of my life.
Anne had a vision. She offered our community an eco and people friendly environment to explore creativity.

Helping the community.
I had the honor to work with Anne on John Skau’s Wood: A Point of Departure.
So when I went shopping at Bricolage for the last time. . .
I wanted to bring Bricolage home. I wanted to surround my self with things that would remind me of the friendships I gained, the lessons in giving I learned . . . and the motto that Anne had on display in the window that gave me, and probably many others, that boost that we needed every single visit . . .
"What would you do if you knew you would never fail?"
