Utah Guild of Heritage Artists September 2022 Newsletter

 


President’s Message

Can you believe this heat? We have gone from Monsoon to record-breaking temperatures. I hope you are staying hydrated and safe.

We are so sorry to report that Eleanor Zimmerman has passed away just shy of 
103 years old. Eleanor is a much-loved member and mentor for our guild. Here is a 

September 17th Class.  If you have not emailed: EyeQDesign@mindspring.com to let Susan know if you wish to order the starter kit, you need to email her. She will bring the kits on the day of the class. She will also send out a video beforehand to everyone who signed up.

Mandala painting on a stone. $15 for the class. Let Gail know or myself if you want to 
sign up.

You will need a starter set for this class.  The kit includes everything you see pictured
here, which slight changes to the templates.



They are priced as follows:
 
 13-piece dotting tool set
 2 cast and base-coated stones
 1 real stone
 Small palette and paintbrush to mix

 Clear acetate gift box
 White pencil
 Practice sheets
 Slideshow
 
The cost of this set is $25 for the kit. Send an email for a kit to:
EyeQDesign@mindspring.com and she will bring them to class.

If you already have a kit from her previous class, or if you just happen to have the 
tools already, then deduct $15 from the cost.  You will then only receive the base-coated
stones and acetate gift box. 
 
I will bring additional cast stones if you love them and want to do more.
However, if you know you’ll want them, I suggest you pre-order them so I can have
them ready for you.

They are priced as follows:
$3        Small Round
$5        Large Round
$5        Tall Round
$6        Large Heart, flat
$4        Large Heart, tall
$3        Small Heart, tall
$5        Large Oval
$3        Small Oval

October 16th Class. For the October meeting, we have lined up a virtual seminar using a Chinese brush technique by Lorean Weng on October 22nd at Glenna’s studio. I hope you have checked out her website. See more information below.

Happy Painting!

October 22 - Lorean Weng class

The brushes are unique, I'm not sure if "normal" watercolor brushes will work.


The PRE-brushes are similar to student brushes and work if you don't want to invest a lot until you try it.


For this project, you will need a small flow brush and a small happy dot brush.

Hummingbird

Most birds are considered a symbol of good luck and messengers of positive news in China. Hummingbirds are not found nor are indigenous species in Asia. Hummingbirds do appear in ancient Mayan, Aztec, Incas and Celtic civilizations. As a spirit animal, the hummingbird represents enjoyment, lightness and reminds us to find the joy and love in our lives and to keep away from negativity.
