Nice article by Elena Hines in the Three Rivers Commercial-News about Three Rivers Artists Guild member Ruth Scott and her jewelry, done during Friday’s Art Hop.
Ruth was at Nancy Boyce’s Golden Finch Gallery. Other members participating were Kathy Bingaman (Ambrosia Vae Baby Boutique), Carol Dugan (Centsible Treasures), Lisa Devine (Love Your Mother), and Mary Powers was at World Fare.

Artists’ Inspiration Day
A lively bunch of Guild members got out of their “comfort zone” and tried some new media in a workshop led by Gail Walters in Lisa & Mike’s sunny studio downtown on Sunday. Textures, tape, poured acrylics, glue, metallic paint… A 7-Layer Painting.
- Beautiful studio space
- a lighthearted mood!
- Gail lectured and demo-ed the techniques
- Gail demonstrates
- In progress with Julia
- Carol pulls off the tape
- Cheryl shows off the result
- At the end we lined them up to view. Note the furry art critic.
- Ta-da! Results.

Lots going on this month!
Guild members interested in her workshop, call Gail Walters, it will be August 14.

Out of area are:
The Vicksburg Art Hop, 5 to 9 pm August 12, online info not too clear, but Becky recommends visiting the studio of pastel artist Coco Sweeney during the hop at 105 Main St. (Link is to Facebook)
Brian sends word of the Bluegill Frolic Aug. 26-28 in Marcellus.
The Marcellus DDA is spearheading an attempt to rehab the old Columbian Hotel in Marcellus into an “arts building.” On Saturday, August 27, the Hudson Memorial Building in conjunction with the Columbian Hotel Committee and the Bluegill Frolic Committee will host an “unjuried artist show and sale”. 10×15 spaces will be $20 inside in the gym or outside on the lawn, a donation to the building fund. Call Julia Birt 580-1216 for more information.
More info about the Bluegill Frolic: http://bluegillfrolic.com. Marcellus Bluegill Frolic LLC has a “call for artists” for their “Craft/Vendor Fair”. All booths must be registered through the MBF LLC process. Download their entry form at http://bluegillfrolic.com/downloads/BlueGillFrolic2011-VendorBoothForm.pdf. This seems to be different from the above, not sure.
