June
meeting saw us examining art containers for nearby (check out ArtSacks) and distant (see AirFloat) exhibits and shows. We also saw
the 12x12 Small Works Essentials natural gallery frame from Dick Blick/Utrecht
(#18862-1904) prescribed for ASBA 2017. General discussion included our Prez
Vanessa showing us a technique for mounting prints to wood panels using
decoupage product. Carol Till recommends Plasti-care (Steve Capone, 4211 S
Natchez Ct, Englewood) as a source for Plexiglas. There’s a scrap pile
available at $2/lb for the smaller pieces. So there, framers and printmakers.
Canada Day is tomorrow,
July 1. Happy birthday, neighbors. Have a lovely party. Thanks for picking such
a great flag design back in 1965.
Rocky Mountain
Land Library is offering some swell workshops this summer. Eileen Richardson offers
this flyer.
Independence
Day is Tuesday this year. Fireworks shows all over the place, so make sure
you find one. July 4, 1776, the Declaration of Independence was adopted,
sending a serious dart into the eyeball of the British Lion. Years of war and
political struggles followed. We’re still here.

show could use some more entries so let’s beef up the participation. Contact
Vanessa Martin if you need access to plant materials. The deadline for
submissions approaches…
