Jill MacFarland Seminar UPDATE

Some of you wanted to know the size of the projects we are painting. According to Jill the mermaid is on a round 12-13" surface - the angel is on a heart that measures 11" across at the widest point and from the center of the heart to the bottom point it measures 10 1/2". Of course, if you have a surface that is not round or bigger than those above, don't worry, you can adjust your pattern.

We still have a few openings for the Jill MacFarland Seminar scheduled next month - 4-5 April 2009. We have opened up the spaces to other chapters in our area so we hope to see a few new faces there. Please check the post below for the photos. I believe the Angel will be painted on Saturday and the Mermaid on Sunday. You can paint it on the surface of your choice. Please contact me by email - angelbrush1@yahoo.com or call 850-969-9524 if you are interested. More info on the class will be posted after I speak with Jill.

Hope to see you at the March Meeting

Our next meeting will be held at 10 am on 7 March 2009 at the Baptist Medical Park. A former member of our chapter will be coming in at 9 am with a lot of her wood and painting supplies that she would like to sell. She has returned to her first love, beading, and no longer needs the painting items. If you are interested, come early. Once the meeting starts the Trading Post will be closed.

Janice will be teaching a small flower pot after the meeting. Just bring your regular painting supplies, she will furnish the pot, instructions, and paint. If you have not signed up for the Jill MacFarland seminar you still have another chance at the meeting. The projects are shown below.

Margaret will be here with the project photos for the Mary Wiseman seminar to be held 25-26 April in Mobile. The cost is $35 a day. As soon as I get a copy of the photos I will post here. Hope to see yall Saturday.
