March-2007
Hello artists!
What a great turnout we had for the February meeting! We enjoyed some small group discussions on how to overcome artist’s block with everyone contributing. Twenty-Six different ways were suggested, which we have included in the newsletter. Cut them out; hang them by your workspace, in case you get stuck! Christine Stokes presented and demonstrated Ukrainian egg decorating. Not only did we hear the wonderful history, but we learned where to get supplies, as well as how to do decorate them and saw many beautiful examples.
Thank you, Jaki, for the wonderful permanent nametags for our paid members. They are encased in plastic, on a string and even include our media. Nice job! Don’t forget to pick yours up when you come AND return them when you leave, so we’ll have them for the next meeting.
With the help of Rochell Hicks and Mary Kipp, we cleaned out the Fenton Artist Guild closet. We have a cart of treasures which we will bring again to the next meeting. For anyone who wants, reference photos, memento photos, trays, items you may have lost, etc. please help yourself.
We honored John Horak for his many years of participation in the Fenton Artist Guild (He joined in 1980), currently he does our certificates for Artist of the Month.
Finally, in March, Kelly Smith from the Jagged Edge Gallery will be presenting all kinds of information about framing. Don’t miss it!
See you there, Tuesday, March 20th at 7:00 p.m.
