Christmas is over!!!!

Time to take a deep breath and assess the situation...the holidays are over, & sales were quite good. I am in a new studio in Amesbury, The Riverwalk Bead Studio & Gallery. This shop is in a renovated victorian train station in beautiful downtown Amesbury MA. Amesbury is becoming known as a great place for artists and fine dining. Next week I'll have to hustle to the galleries to replace holiday items with my signature wildlife pieces. There is one last holiday commission piece to complete and deliver to Wenham, a painted floor cloth of two adorable labs in the marsh. Next I need to create my piece to submit to Fiber College for consideration as a class next September. After that I have to set up my next few classes, I may also be teaching at the new gallery in Amesbury along with A Loom With A View in Newburyport. You may have noticed I am trying to avoid end of year bookkeeping, it really needs to be done next week.....
Wishing everyone a happy and healthy new year!!!

Holiday Art & Fine Crafts, Newburyport

Hello all,
     I was offered a spot in a great show this Friday and Saturday being held at the Unitarian Church Meeting House on Pleasant Street in Newburyport, MA. Fri is 5to 9 PM, Sat is 10AM to 5PM, Friday coincides with the last Invitation Nights Shopping in beautiful downtown Newburyport. Check out the Chamber of Commerce web page for more invitation night information. Saturday I'll be skipping out to teach a class across the street at A Loom With A View, Betsy Martins great yarn and weaving shop. My better half will be standing in for me at the show for two hours, he is such a good sport. Fortunately the great group of artists I met at the museum show will also be at this one, they will keep an eye on him. I'll keep my fingers crossed that no one will need to use a credit card during his tenure, it could get dicey...
Come out and support local arts, I'd love to meet you!
