I
hope everyone who painted the Pineapple Banner in February enjoyed
the class and liked their finished banner. I love the look and taste
of a good pineapple.
Hope
everyone is signed up for the April seminar with Heidi.
I'll
be going to the Las Vegas Convention the end of February. If you
haven't been to one, it would be a nice experience to take a class
and/or attend the trade show. It's also a nice, warm “getaway”.
I
hope to see you all in March for Trizah's “Russian Folk Art” book
cover. I'm looking forward to the class.
Happy
Birthday wishes to all the March birthday ladies and belated birthday
wishes to those in January and February.
Take
care ladies and Happy Painting
Aloha
Lydia

2013 Paint-ins
The Board would like some input from the Chapter members about next year's Paint-ins and fall Seminar. What kind and style of projects would you like to paint? Who would you like as teachers? Would you willing to teach a class and if so, what would you teach? Please give this some serious thought. We are here for You. Contact any of the Board members with your ideas.
2013 Chapter Service Project
This year again, the Chapter will be continuing the Food Drive as our Community Service Project. Last year was very successful and we hope to do even better this year. Members are urged to bring items for the Food Bank to each Paint-in and Seminar they attend. (See our Food Bank Donations Guideline page for information on acceptable items or go the the Utah Food Bank web site for more information.) There is a lot of need, so we hope everyone will support this effort.
