I haven’t sent out a newsletter in some time and
wanted to stay in touch. We continue to do the
Farmer’s Markets in Londonderry and Dorset each
week, weather permitting, and they are very busy markets.
The
downturn in the economy has its good points and bad
points, and one of the good things is that until
now, I have never had enough original paintings to
have a show. I now have quite a few on hand,
so I have scheduled a show and sale at the In View
Center for the Arts at the Landgrove Inn. It
will run from August 7 through August 15, 2010. The
opening wine and cheese reception will be August 7, 5 – 7
p.m., and we would love to see you there!
Earlier
this season I taught a Rufus Porter style painting
class at the Fletcher Farm School for the Arts and
Crafts in Ludlow, and also did a vinegar graining
lecture/demo at The Gallery at the Vault in Springfield. My
work is now available at the Vault, which has been
designated as a Vermont State Craft Center.
We
have been doing a bit more advertising recently,
and participated in a co-op ad in Yankee Magazine
through the Okemo Valley Regional Chamber of Commerce. We
are hopeful it will bring more business to our website
and gallery.
I
am trying to catch up on my house portrait commission
paintings and get a few other paintings done. This past winter I painted a Florida painting
entitled “Jazzy Jacaranda” which is a fun
painting of a jacaranda tree in full bloom, and includes
tropical birds and an alligator. Click here for
a direct link to the image.
We
look forward to seeing you this summer. Please
come to my show if you are in the area. For more
information
email martha@marthasfolkart.com,
or call me at 802-824-3778. Have a wonderful
summer.
Warm regards. Martha
