Letter from President Lisa Peck
Hi Gals,
Sorry I am a little slow with this. I am a new grandma
today! We have an Avery Jane!
I would like to thank Glenna for teaching the Snowman and
Elves project. I think that everyone finished, and it was so much fun to see
the different pieces that everyone painted on. Some were big and re-arranged,
and some were tiny. It was a lot of fun! Thanks Glenna.
Our project for March is the Oil can from JoSonja, to be
taught by Cherie Ringger. I have seen some of the pieces that you are painting
on, and this will really be a lot of fun. If you need patterns for basing,
please contact Pat. If we come with our pieces based, we may finish this
project, just like we finished last month's. We are getting a great start to
our year.
I will have Michele's piece in March, so come have a
look/see. If I am able to get a picture we will have to send it out separate.
Sorry. We are going to be painting in April at my house. That way we won't have
to cap the number of people who can come. If you have seen the tray, you will
be as excited as I am, and that is without paint on it. Everything Michele does
is beautiful. This is a great opportunity to get to paint with Michele and I
hope you all are able to take advantage. She is so much fun to paint with!
I know a lot of our gals went to Vegas this past month and I
am hoping you will all do a quick show and tell for us on the March paint day.
Bring your favorite piece you painted and show us!
We are still looking for painted pieces or handcrafted items
for the special raffle for our service project this year. Please let me know if
you have anything you are willing to donate.
Thanks so much for the joy you ladies bring with you each
month when you come to paint with us.
We will see you on March 17th. It is St. Patrick's Day so wear some green!
Lisa Peck, UGHA President
March 17th Project - 9:00 am
April 20 and 21 Seminar with Michelle Walton - 9:00 am
Reminder we will be painting at Lisa Peck's House in Draper.
Michelle is doing a project on a Magnolia Home bowl and we will have her piece at the meeting in March. This is a great chance to paint with Michelle. She is so much fun to paint with, if you haven't had the opportunity. She has the most amazing imagination and comes up with the funnest things to paint. I encourage you to put this on your calendar. The cost of the two-day seminar is $125.00. Lisa has some trays available if you want to buy one. They are $32.00. Pay Pat if you want one.
May 19th Project - 9:00 am
In May we will be doing a beautiful Norwegian bowl by Gary Albrecht. It is a piece from the Decorative Painter from 1993, and I am excited to see what we can all come up with. Gary's bowl is black and red, but this can be easily translated to other colors if you wish. We can put our heads together and figure it out. This will be fun.
