Happy May from Ocala Decorative Artists |

Dear Friends,
May is usually the month that brings us lots of rain - usually afternoon showers. The weeds are popping up like crazy and you know what? I don't care! I pay someone to weed and spray for me. I would rather spend my time doing something that I enjoy like painting, browsing on line sales at the art stores, checking the web sites of the many decorative art chapters that are here in Florida (gives us an idea what they are up to), checking out You-tube, and of course I fit in an occasional nap!
We welcome our newest member, Maggie Goddard. We sat together and painted dots on coffee cups (how hard can that be?)
Thank you Georgia for your patience in teaching the workshop - we had fun and what a relaxing, no stress project it was.
I hope all our members will be able to attend this month's meeting so that we can finish painting most of the bags for the "Operation Smile" project. We will be using animal patterns which Margaret and Ronee have agreed to put on the bags prior to the workshop... so just bring your paints and brushes and we will have a fun day.
Our Secretary and Hospitality member, Peggy, is having hip surgery on May 13th and I am sure she would appreciate cards and get well wishes from us.
Mrs. Peggy Morin
2991 S.W. 87th Pl.
Ocala, Fl. 34476.
We wish her a speedy recovery.
We are doing a little something different in June - Ronee is teaching a jewelry workshop. She was wearing one of her necklaces and we all raved about it and conned her into teaching us how to make one. What a great gift item and very unusual and different. You don't want to miss this workshop. Please sign up so we can prepare for the class.
Our theme for this month's raffle basket is "HOME". (Use your imagination - it does not have to be paint-related) and please bring in your show and tell projects and an item for our breakfast table. Looking forward to seeing you on May 25th.
Stay well and be safe.
Kindest regards, Barbara
Time to paint some more bags. This time for "Operation Smile" |
