A BIG THANK YOU --------
“You all did a smashing job on the Botanic Gardens Show. There were 164 ballots for
the People’s Choice Award. First place went to Helen Buznedo for her “African
Market”, but there were twenty two paintings which received from three to seven
votes.. Each artist received at least one vote for the People’s Choice. Among these
votes were ten for bin works and three for rocks!
All of you who worked on the show have my grateful Thank You’s. A
special thanks goes to everyone who sat the show -- - several sat without
paintings in the show. We all learned a lot about our fellow club members
and the “people watching” of those walking through was fun.
Thanks to everyone who helped this show go so well.” Rosemary Weiler
GOOD NEWS: We did sell some paintings at Boettcher Concert Hall

We want & need a wider representation of our artists on this site. Our webmaster tells
us that he can scan photos of your works and can also accept slides. So now there’s
less reason to resist being on our web site. I do notice that many shows still require
slides. Our website offers a good overview of the club to potential exhibitors &
members.
