Dear UGHA painters,
School is out and I am ready to do some exploring and traveling. We are painting
on the 4th Saturday, June 25th. That way it will not conflict with the Father's Day
weekend and Glenna should be back.
Donna is teaching some watercolor on cards. Betty VanPelt has a box of
approximately 50 cards so we can purchase them from her when you come.
Donna has worked up three different designs (photos below). This class should be fun.
Come join us! As always, we will have Zoom available if you want to join from a distance.
We will not be meeting in July but will meet on August 20th at Kay Salisbury's house
for the August Opening Social at 11:00 a.m. Kay's address: 2169 Creek Way,
Sandy, UT.
Sat., June 25, 9:00 a.m. Watercolor Cards

Utah Guild of Heritage Artists - UGHA
President's Message - May
Dear UGHA Members,
What a wet spring we are having. We had to have trees trimmed from the damage of freezing rain and then we had snow. Yikes! The patterns and boxes are in. Judy asks that we get the prep done. This is not so large that it shouldn’t be too difficult. Lunch is provided. May 21st at 9:00 a.m. `
June we will be meeting on the 4th Saturday so far. We will be doing watercolor on cards. Donna Richards is teaching. Blick has Canson Blank Greeting Cards – white watercolor with envelope, pkg of 6 for $5.88. We can use acrylic paint in place of watercolor too. Works well. Donna will work up examples and I will send them out soon. $5 each for the pattern.
Glenna heard back on the cost of the spider boxes and they have gone up to $35 each because of the price of the wood Let me know if you are interested or not. I know a few I have talked to said they are not interested at that cost.
We are moving the seminar with Carol Spohn to October. It
will not be so hot that month also we will not run into people taking a vacation.
Hope to see you at the meeting. We will still be recording the class for
those that cannot attend.
Best,
Marilyn Healy, President

April 2022 Newsletter
Utah Guild of Heritage Artists
President's Message - April
If you are needing to order the Bentwood box for the May
project, I need to get the order to DePalma’s by April 8th. Let Gail
know and get her a check or Venmo her ASAP so we can order them. You can, as
always, use your own surface. The dimensions are 4 ¾” x 7 ½” x 3 ¾” high.
I am ready to get together and paint. Thanks to Loretta for teaching The CREATE banner/blocks. They were such fun. Loved the color Loretta used on her blocks. We are sending hugs to Loretta’s daughter who had surgery. Wishing her a speedy recovery.
Thanks to everyone who is stepping up to teach and help. We
had a raffle in March and Jacque Illguth is helping with the raffle. Anyone who
can bring items to donate to the raffle this month, please bring them.
If you can donate items to the Mother’s in shelters project we are going to need them at this April meeting in order to get them to the shelter by Mother’s Day. Please get them to the studio. They will accept artwork if you want to donate anything like that. I was going to get diapers and a few things like shampoo and conditioners.
Thanks in advance.
Marilyn Healy, UGHA President

Dear Painters:
I can’t wait to see what everyone painted from those that went to
Las Vegas. We are ready to get back to meeting again. Loretta is teaching an
Erika JoAnn design. I have all the little embellishments supplied: buttons, yarn, painted 2" round, frame
for the letter "E.”
Kay
Salisbury is teaching the concrete cat for April. Please let Gail know right
away if you are signing up and how many you need so we can make sure to get
enough poured and ready. I am painting one for my daughter. This would make a
great gift. The cost is $20.
Judy
will be teaching a beautiful floral box for May. The box will be $23.00. We
will need to have these ordered by April 8th. The pattern will be $10. So
please, let Gail know what you are signing up for and if you are getting a
pattern or if you will be signing up for the surface as well. You can certainly
use your own surface though. Just a reminder you can Venmo Gail at @GailJenson.
Just
use a smiley face in the description then message her what you paid for.
You
can mail her a check if you feel more comfortable with this method as well.
Hope
to see you at the meeting. We will still be recording for those that cannot
attend.
Happy painting!
Marilyn

February 2022 Newsletter
Winter Olympics in Beiijing, China -- Go U.S.A. Team!
February is upon us. The days are getting a bit longer.
Thanks to Betty Van Pelt for teaching in January. It was such fun. I finished mine and it is on the porch.
Since so many of us are going to Las Vegas, we will not be getting together with the Guild in February. However, Loretta is teaching a fun project for March. It is an Erika JoAnn pattern.
Let Gail know whether you want the pattern or pattern and kit (which is the wood blocks). Gail's email address is: chatgail@yahoo.com. We will order everything, and we will have kits with a small frame cut from the Cricut, a 2” wooden disc for yarn ball as well as some buttons. There is prep on this piece. Each block has scrapbook paper glued on with Mod Podge to the front of each and let it dry. (There is a YouTube video of how to glue scrapbook paper on wood if you have questions.) I used light colors; one of light green with dots, one pink, and the others beige. You could make a banner if you do not want to glue onto blocks. I would paint onto watercolor paper and do some mixed media on the background if you wanted such as a chevron stamp or some pale watered-down splattered colors.
Kay will teach the concrete cat in April. Judy Graham will
be teaching a floral box in May. No price yet. Thanks to all the ladies that
have agreed to teach.
Sincerely,
Marilyn Healey
UGHA President

President’s Message:
Happy New Year! I think the year 2022 is a nice even number so we can expect a nice calm, even year. That is what I am hoping for anyway. I know the COVID 19 numbers are high so if you are not comfortable with coming to meet in person, we have Zoom available.
Please plan on joining us as Betty Van Pelt will be teaching a cute snowman project. I am painting mine on a galvanized bucket. We did something like that years ago, but I gave mine away as a gift. So, I am needing one I can put snowmelt in. It has different seasons of snowmen on it, and this will be great on the porch. You can decide what surface you paint on though.
Kay has so graciously agreed to teach a concrete cat in February. This will be great in the yard. Maybe it will keep the raccoons away. She has painted up an orange and a grey one to offer two options.
Stay safe!
Marilyn Healy

Christmas Party Photos
We all had a lot of fun at the UGHA Christmas party. Thank you to Betty for being our fearless leader the past two Covid years. She did a tremendous job and worked hard to keep us all painting during the Covid epidemic. We owe her a huge debt of gratitude.
We made a few changes to how we run our guild. Instead of having a full board, we reduced the board size down to three. Our president is Marilyn Healy and Loretta Tatum and Gail Jensen serve on the board. Please be willing to help these ladies out as we go through the year!
Here are photos of the people that won the items painted by Karen Brouwer, lucky folks!
