The Art Behind Maintaining a Retreat Center
Tuesday, May 12th, 2009
Retreat groups coming to TYME OUT may not always have the opportunity to meet Keith Bartley, but they all enjoy the fruits of his labor. As our Minister of Maintenance, Keith keeps the facility running smoothly, providing retreatants with a comfortable environment in which to nurture their spiritual lives.
But how many visitors to TYME OUT realize that within this same Michaelangelo of Maintenance beats the heart of an artist? Upon entering the building, one can catch a glimpse of his artistic talents in the ceramic TYME OUT sun-logo that hangs on the same wall that recognizes our many generous donors.
Keith works in a variety of media, from ceramics to stained glass and paints. Check out a small sampling of his works below, and just click on the thumbnail for a larger view.
