Greetings from The Assemblage Studio (well sort of, I'm now back at my computer)!
Thank you Lisa Cook for sharing your pics. Lisa Cook drove in from Amherst, WI and joined us Friday night for the Paper Doll Social. It was so nice to finally meet her and Linda Warlyn (St. Charles, IL), my fellow nature study friends. Our Earth Day weekend event was organized by Teresa Gifford, owner of The Assemblage Studio (a studio, a gallery and a shop chock full of all sorts of indispensible items for mixed media artists). The first pic is of me shortly after my flight from Atlanta touched down in Green Bay on the evening of our social, and what a special evening we had, thanks to Teresa's thoughtful planning and a little help from Joanna (aka Shop Girl). The wine was exquisite and the cheese, well we were in Wisconsin what else do I need to say folks?!
From left to right, here's Linda Warlyn (check out her beautiful feature in the current issue of Somerset Studio), Lisa Cook (one of the contributing artists in Terry Taylor's new book The Artful Storybook), and myself. The next pic is of the lovely Teresa Gifford, talented artist and workshop organizer, followed by my friend Mary Ann McKeating (Janesville, WI). And that's Pat modeling a fabulous paper crown (notice that it is made with Character Constructions paper dolls) artfully designed and hand-crafted by Teresa Gifford. What a brilliant idea, a paper crown crafted with paper dolls . . . I love it! Finally, a pic of Joanna, aka Shop Girl, who treated us all like royalty and gave Teresa a much needed break so she could have a little fun too!
Thank you Teresa No. 2 (best friend to Teresa No. 1) and Mary Ann for sharing your pics. Thanks to their generosity, I have tons more photos to share and will be posting them in a separate photo album.
