Hello Chapter Members,
Hope everyone is enduring this early
heat we’ve been having on and off.
Our May business meeting went very
well. We had a small attendance—small but
mighty.
There was a vote to raise our seminar
budget, from $2,000 each year to $3,800,
since we’ve started to have 2 per year again.
Liz has some wonderful teachers coming to
teach us in the next two years. Looking
forward to these seminars. Thanks, Liz, for
all of your hard work!
We also talked briefly that members
need to think about who is willing to step up
and be president for next year. We are
already half way through the year, so I will
be asking for a nominating committee. If
anyone is willing to help me out with this,
please give me a call.
I also will need a few members to help
with the changes of bylaws. We’ve voted to
keep our membership at $15 a year. That
will be one of the bylaws
that will need to be
changed. Any volunteers
are highly welcomed.
We also talked about
our October auction and
what a great fundraiser it
is. Please donate your
time by painting
something for our auction.
I still have wood items if
you would like to paint
one. Or use something you
already have. I just want
to thank each of our
members for all of the
time and effort you put
into our chapter. It’s
because of each and
everyone of our members that this chapter
keeps going.
A big thank you to Pat Gettemeyer for
teaching those bullhorns. Everyone had a
great time!
The next board meeting will be June
1st at Los Prados at 11 a.m. We always eat
lunch first. If anyone would like to come
other than the board, please let me know.
Keep smiling and lots of painting.
Remember, I have a great prize for the one
who paints the most projects (over 50 or
more).
See you all at our next meeting. Lots of
hugs!
Your friend,
Gwen Palmer

Pro g r am s Hello Ladies,
I’m happy to announce that Pat Gettemeyer’s class
turned out to be a huge success! We had a great time and
Pat did a wonderful job of teaching. Thank you again,
Pat, for stepping up!
In June: Shayron Monahan will
be teaching a baby swan design by
Barb Halvorson. If you haven’t taken
an animal class before, this is a good
one to start with. Shayron is a
fantastic animal teacher.
You still have a little time to sign
up for this class. Call me so you can
get your prep instructions. The price
of this workshop is $15.
You will need to provide your own
surface. Shayron has asked that you
bring the following brushes for her class:
• Sable rounds #2 and #3, if you don’t mind fanning
them out. (These are what Shayron learned on.)
• Filbert grass combs or filbert grainers, #1/4 and
#1/8.
Also, Shayron says she used Delta’s Creamcoat
Liberty Blue for the swan, but Blue Harbor is close to the
same color. (She says Liberty Blue is one of her favorite,
all-time colors and she grabs it a lot without thinking.)
If you have any questions about the prep instructions
for Shayron’s baby swan, please contact her.
In July: Sheila Hughes will be teaching White Rose
Radiance, a Maria Mermett TDR design. This is a
beautiful floral. If can be painted on a surface of your
choice, or you can paint it on the surface that Sheila used.
Contact Shiela to order.
Sheila is a beautiful painter. I
can’t wait to see all the different
surfaces you girls pick. The cost of this
workshop is $15.
In August: One of our
wonderful teachers from California,
Jeannetta Cimo, is coming to teach a
trick-or-treat design that Jeannetta
designed herself.
This is a simple and fun project
that will get you in the mood for Halloween. It’s perfect
for beginners and, for you more seasoned painters,
maybe consider doing two at once and give one for a gift.
Don’t miss out on this one girls! It should be
spooktacular!!! The cost of this paint-in is $10. Contact
Sheila to order the wood.

kindness. Let’s do it all
again June 9th.

Hello SSTDP Chapter Members!
The Seminar Committee has
been hard at work to finish up
the details for our upcoming
Shara Reiner Seminar. There are
only a few small details to wrap
up, otherwise we are ready to
“party.”
You will receive cute favors
and names will be drawn for
surprise give aways! It is going to
be a fun weekend! Remember,
lunches and snacks will be
provided each day.
On Friday evening, June 22, all
of you who are attending the seminar are invited to have
dinner together as we take Shara to Outback Steakhouse.
Remember to bring money to pay for your own dinner.
We will take a head count the “day
of.”
At our last meeting we
went over a misprint on the paint
prep colors. The Tomato Spice
listed in the paint list is not
correct. It should read Tomato
Red. This is a house roof color on
the prep instructions. Also, not
listed is Grape Juice. You will
NOT need Grape Juice for the
prep, but add it to your paint list,
especially if you may plan to use
this palette in the future.
Remember, all paints during
seminar will be provided for us
by Deco Art.
I think that’s all for now! See you at Chapter, June 9,
for any important updates!

The Shara Reiner seminar project.
Peggy Simpson took a
fall while on her visit in New
Orleans. She injured her face,
elbow and has a few broken
bones. She is still in New
Orleans and is awaiting news as
to whether or not more surgery
is required. She really wants to
return home in a big way.
Char Davis was thought
to have had a stroke, but
luckily, it was not. Not long
after, she was in an automobile
accident, along with her family,
in her daughter’s vehicle. She
has been out of sorts since then
and just waiting to get over all
the discomfort caused greatly
by the air bag
deployment. Fortunately no
one was seriously injured. But
all were seriously traumatized.
Jan Green had surgery
the week of 5/14.
Please keep these ladies in
your prayers as they continue
in their recovery.
