There's a seat at the table for everyone -- with this particular table inspired by a certain icon mentioned during Hutchmoot. In the upper deck is the Wood Between the Worlds (from The Magician's Nephew) because that's how it felt to be on Zoom during Lingermoot, meeting new friends. (With a hat tip to Pauline Baynes's illustration.) The tree's leaves are orange because that's really what they look like around here during the fall, and once I began to paint them, the tree seemed so Calvin and Hobbes that I looked up Bill Watterson's work for more color inspiration.

For our poster, we decided to represent our family, not only by including some of our 2-year old son's toys and books alongside our own, but also by collaborating with him on the colouring. It's also representative of our engagement with Hutchmoot this year: embracing the chaos of an active toddler, and the beauty in the mess and imperfection!

I found the Rabbit Room a few years ago through some close friends soon after a car accident that left me broken and fearful. I can't fully articulate how powerfully God has used the RR since that time to fill me with His peace, hope, and joy. Grateful for the Sower's leading and the many ways He has used the RR to help me grow in my walk with Him.

This was a highlight for us this weekend, a true family collaboration. We totally want to build a real treehouse now. Each member of our family is represented with an animal that in some way matches their personality. The smallest room is actually the biggest room inside - an entire garden. We have every good book in our Library so we can share read alouds. And of course yummy foods to share including Ramen (which we tried for the first time this weekend) and 2ish ingredient biscuits.

As a scholar of Maurice Sendak, I've been struck by the connections and allusions to him at this year's Hutchmoot. I was delighted to learn he was friends with Walt Wangerin Jr., and Malcolm Guite has made references to William Blake, who was a huge influence on Sendak. Sendak also did illustrations for THE GOLDEN KEY (and THE LIGHT PRINCESS). So here is my tribute to how all of these artists and their influences interweave and connect with each other.

I am amazed at everyone's beautiful tree houses! This is my simple contribution to the fridge art. It is inhabited by some of my friends from my garden: "Parsley" "Sage" "Rosemary" and "Thyme" ( as well as "Basil" and "Lavender " and "Lemongrass" and "Dill" and many many others!!)

This was truly a family project!  As you can see, we added several folks from Hutchmoot into our poster!  We also added the flowers at the bottom of the tree as our resident rabbit gardener suggested.  The paintings in our tree house are pieces from my boys paintings from when they were little.  143 was Mr. Rogers way of saying "I Love You" and the tiny picture next to that is a picture of my Rabbit Room mug on our mantel.  This was SO MUCH FUN to make!  Thank you all for making this a part of Hutchmoot!

This was so much fun to use creativity with markers, stickers, colored pencil, gel pens, and post-it people! Hard to capture the color it actually is, but close enough.  So much fun seeing everyone's versions.  Wishing for my own personal tree house or tiny house...

Hutchmoot Homebound last year was exactly what my tired and hurting soul needed to reconnect to community, to take a big deep breath and to dive back into creativity.  So this year's poster I painted, stitched and added drawings I did since last year's event.  These wouldn't have been completed without the push from Hutchmoot, artist's & and the new friends in this community.   So thrilled to be back this year.

It has been a long time since I just sat and colored. If this is suppose to show what my Hutchmoot Homebound is going to be like then it must include the 3 little boys that keep me on my toes. Then thought the treehouse looked like a fun place to play and helped with some of the color scheme in places. Now they are begging for a two level treehouse in their back yard. My oldest asked me what I was going to call my poster and I decided it should be names Three Little Boys on a Grand Adventure.

I enjoyed colouring this and incorporating a few of my images with my computer and iPad. The bridge path above I was thinking about the secret passages or journeys taken during the weekend.

My nephew and I spent an evening decorating this poster. Henry felt there needed to be a Jaguar so he drew in the feline.

The first time I saw the poster I said, "No way!" Then Jesus said, "Hang it up; look at it & listen." So . . . it is symbolic in SO many ways to the LONG season of my life that has felt so full of dark, drab, loss & griefs. I used crayons - reminding me of being a child (usually crayons are a "first" art medium"), a child needing my Abba Father. All things move from dark/death to life/light/color. The colors in HUTCHMOOT speak to God's promise to Noah as well as the gold (H) & silver (T) to the refining process of sanctification. The steps/threshold of the tree to the blood of Christ. The Phoenix to new life from death, Christ's & mine. The vine/fruit to Jesus/me abiding in Him. The bucket/river to Jesus as provider of Living Water. The tire swing to coming to Jesus giving rest when I am weary. The bread & wine to Jesus's sacrifice for me & my sacrificing for others in His name. The "not as completely done" around the edges, outside the border, reminding me that God is at work outside the box I put God in, whether I can see that work or not. And more . . .

We are looking forward to a wonderful weekend with Hutchmoot Homebound. We enjoyed creating a poster that depicts our love for reading and the outdoors. The two acorns represent Old Man Willow and his son ready for the weekend. Yvonne & Riley

I am not a visual artist, but I had so much fun planning and completing this. I used a combination of media--watercolors, colored pencils, markers, and items printed from my computer. I'm sorry this isn't big enough for the words to be legible--they are the real theme of this one. Around the edges of treehouse I have quoted John 1:1-2, 14. Then there is a quotation from CS Lewis on the front, one from Wendell Berry on the left side, then one from Proverbs and one from Hamlet on the smaller house on the roof. The leaves of the tree contain verbs showing what good writing can do and the roots of the tree are surrounded by the fruit of the Spirit from Galatians 5.

That was so fun! I haven't used watercolors in years! (Watercolors, ink, & colored pencil).

I filled in the spaces with things that bring me joy. Music, seeking truth, clocks, baseball over the radio, books, and coke.

I'm double dipping on conferences this weekend with my wife, so we have a bit of a journey from Charlotte to Rochester, leaving at 4am on Weds. I'll be mostly Mooting covertly from the halls of a big 'ol college music conference. My wife is playing some oboe, and we're presenting one thing together. The rest of the while I'll be noodling around on various stringed things and enjoying the fellowship and inspiration of the Moot... my first Hutchmoot. Leaving the kids behind for a few days, which is strange. They eventually were going to be up in the top of the treehouse, but lets assume they've already run off into the woods to frolic . Excited to virtually meet some folks, some ideas, some questions, some exclamations, all the things.

It was such fun to work on this. I tried to use a variety of art mediums. My favorite medium was using modeling paste under acrylic paint for tree foliage, grass, the main part of the tree house and even the tire swing. I hung the words in the tree house that describe an unfolding journey with God - the abundance that he invites us into.

We tried to include elements of all our family's creativity.  The superheroes are for my younger boy.  The dragon for the older.  Narnia is for me.  And the anvil is for my husband, a blacksmith. Also, there are Feechie eyes in the tree.

This was a great idea! Thanks Jonny for the project! I used colored pencils on this. I'm not a visual artist by any stretch, but I hope you can see my passions: music and reading (you might have to zoom in and use some imagination to see the literature section in the attic). This was a a lot of fun, and I'm looking forward to conference this weekend!

During our church retreat, my dear 5-year old friend collapsed into tears of frustration during a fierce game of GaGa Ball. So I led her back to the Lodge and brought out the Hutchmoot poster and  a pack of Crayolas. "What's your favorite color?" "Rainbow, gold, silver, and sparkles." We started our coloring journey, and while I attended the evening prayer service she filled our poster with "rainbow."
