Exciting Things Are Happening!

Exciting things are happening! Last week I had a photo shoot for a magazine article which will be on handmade fashions and accessories. A reporter for "South Shore Living Magazine" contacted me and interviewed me about my work and the pieces that I make. The photo shoot included 4 other artists. It was great fun as we posed for the camera! There was even an art director setting the poses! I realized that this is why I hire a model to photograph my clothing as I do not do that well! The article will be in the November issue and I can't wait to see it. This is the first time I have been included in a magazine article. Look for it if you live in the Boston and South Shore area.

Exciting thing #2: My work was accepted into the inaugural exhibit of "The Guilded Tulip" in Lancaster, PA. This is the new home of the Pennsylvania Guild of Designer Craftsmen of which I am a juried member. They are located on Gallery Row which is a new art initiative in Lancaster. The opening for the exhibit was September 5 at which time the Mayor of Lancaster welcomed the Gallery and the Guild. You can see more info on their website, http://www.pacrafts.org/. Check it out! Even better, if you live near Lancaster, PA go visit the gallery. Let me know what you think on the comment page of my blog.

Exciting thing #3: Two of my pieces were accepted into the Plymouth Art Guild Annual Tent Show in Plymouth, MA. Out of over 500 entries, 200 were accepted. The show is on until Sunday, September 21. It is under the tent on the Training Green in town. Check out show info on the guild's website at http://www.plymouthguild.org/ and all you Plymouthians, go visit the show!

  1. Yeah, Judy! I am so happy to read about all of your good news. Things are fine here. I am heading to the studios now. I think all of the tough times are behind me. I still hope to get to Lancaster.

    Talk to you soon.
    Always,
