November 2017 Newsletter

Hi Ladies,

        Here we are into November and we had a wonderful seminar last week with Judy Diephouse.  I know I really enjoyed it, especially since I was able to finish both pieces.  I am looking forward to painting with Cheri Ringer doing the Santa and child on a tree plate.  Be sure and have all the basing done and Cheri feels that we could finish that piece as well.

        Remember to sign up for the Christmas luncheon which will be at the Lion House for the last year.  Cost is $25.00.  As soon as we feel everyone is signed up we are going to do a drawing for those attending.  Please bring a $10.00 gift for the person you get with an attached note about something positive about that person.  I think we all need positive feedback.  I know I am looking forward to it.

         We will be voting on our next year officers at the November meeting so please be there.  I would love to have everyone participate in running the Guild and helping to make it as great as can be.

                Also, this year I have signed up the Guild to participate in the Holiday Boutique at the Holladay City Building the Monday through Wednesday after Thanksgiving.  All proceeds will be given to the Huntsman Cancer Center to buy art supplies for the children battling cancer.  I am hoping everyone will participate in contributing at least one item for that sale.  Please bring the pieces you have to our November meeting with a price on it.  I will then get the tags ready for the boutique.  We really don’t need to man the booth.  I am close enough that I will check on it and do what needs to be done.  I think this will be a great time to let people in the area know about our art form.  We might even get interest in some learning from us.  Sure hope everyone will participate.

                Thank you for all you do to make our chapter great.

                                                Judy

October 2017 Newsletter

Hi Ladies,

Here we are in October.  Where has the summer gone?  I am looking forward to the Judy Diephouse seminar this month.  Hope you are also.  Things look taken care of so please come and enjoy a couple  of fun painting days with us.  I do have a question for you.  Loretta received a deposit for the seminar from a Kim Rogers.  The check had no phone number on it and we need to call her to find out which day she is coming etc.  Hoping someone knows her.  Please give me a call if you do so I can get her a pattern etc.

November is coming right up with the painting of a Helen Barrick Santa and child being taught by Cheri Ringger.  The plates should be here to hand out at the seminar.

Christmas is right around the corner.  We will be going to the Lion House on the first Saturday in December.  Please sign up early .  For the gift exchange this year I am hoping to have a gift exchange where you will know who the gift goes to and you will be able to enclose a short note about something you like about that person.  I think it could really be fun.

The guild is going to have a table at a boutique here in Holladay with all the proceeds going to the Huntsman Cancer Center to buy art supplies for the children there.  This will also be a great time to showcase of art for to the community.  Hopefully everyone will have something to contribute.

Continue with all that fun painting and I will see you the end of the month.

September 2017 Newsletter

Hi Ladies,

I had a wonderful summer.  Just hope that you did also.  The opening social was great mainly because of the work of Kay and Pat.  So appreciative of Kay for letting us use her home again.   

The projects  for the remainder of the year were on display and sign-ups available.  If you weren’t there and want to paint, please contact Pat McKean who will take your money and get you the pattern.  Glenna is teaching a Halloween plate in September, the seminar with Judy Diephouse is in October and then Cheri is teaching a cute Helen Barrick Christmas Plate in November. 

We are looking forward to our annual Christmas Luncheon the first Saturday of December at the Lion House.  This has been a tradition and we are looking forward to it as well.

I know this is a short message but am hoping you will all come and make the end of the year memorable.  Please be thinking about serving on the board next year.  I know Lisa is looking for those to help and we need everyone’s input.

This has been a great year.  Thanks to everyone.  See you this month.

July 2017 Newsletter

Dear Ladies,

I hope you have all had a great summer.  Retreat was great as usual and hopefully everyone has enjoyed the month off in July. Thank you to Shonnie for being over the retreat and thanks to her committee for making it such a great time for all.

August is really going to be busy for me as I will be in California painting with JoSonja for two weeks.  I leave on August 5 and return on August 19, so we need to move the opening social to August 26.  Kay Salisbury has graciously offered her backyard for the event.  We have had the social there before and what a great place.  We are planning on starting at noon and should be finished by around 4:00 so you will still have some  of Saturday open free for other things.

Kaye’s address is 2169 Creek Way in Sandy. We will have activities but I am looking forward to  seeing the projects for the rest of the year.  

In September Glenna will be teaching a Halloween plate, the seminar with Judy Diephouse will be  October 27 and 28 and then Cheri Ringger will be teaching a Helen Barrick Christmas plate in November.  We are then planning on our annual Christmas Luncheon in December.  Hope to see you there and have you join us painting these fun projects the rest of the year.

I have so appreciated the wonderful board I have been able to work with this year.  You all make our chapter work.  Thanks so much.

            Happy painting and see you August 26th.

May 2017 Newsletter

Hi Painting Ladies, 

We had a great time painting with Kristen last month and I even have my tree finished.  Hope everyone else did as well.

Please remember that we will be painting the Apple Basket with Lisa this Saturday (May 6th) which we missed in February.  I will be there at 9:00 a.m. and we will start painting as soon as possible.  Thanks Lisa for the adjustment.

Looking forward to painting with Tirzah this month which is a project I have been  wanting to paint for some time now.  Tirzah did call me the other day and feels that if we get some of the basing done ahead there is a chance we could finish our pieces.  Everyone knows the background is JoSonja’s Cobblestone.  After that just base in the scrolls with Stillwater, the leaves with Olive Green, all red areas with Red Earth, and all yellow areas with Raw Sienna.  Please check the colored picture for placement.  The flowers look white but are really yellow.

Shonnie and her committee have really been working on retreat which is coming up next month.  We should be able to pick up out projects at the meeting this month so we are ready for all the fun.  Hopefully everyone can make it to at least some of the festivities.

July is vacation time so have fun and we will be seeing you at the opening social August 26^th.  More information will be coming soon.

                                                        Thanks for everyone's support this year.
