Happy Holidays from the Arts Council. I hope you enjoy this modified version of the 12 Days of Christmas and that maybe it will inspire your gift-giving!
On the twelfth day of Christmas, My true love sent to me…
Twelve pitchers pouring,
Eleven earrings dangling,
Ten scarves a-swaying,
Nine platters serving,
Eight stars a-shining,
Seven clocks a-ticking,
Six dogs a-barking,
Five napkin rings,
Four glowing votives,
Three crowing birds,
Two glass pumpkins,
And a Quilt in the Holiday Show!

In case you were wondering, Redheaded Stepchild has returned from Sabbatical. The last few weeks he’s been wandering the countryside taking odd jobs.
He worked for a while as a Carnival Barker
Held a Rock Skipping Workshop
At Lake Okoboji
He started a fitness routine

Now he’s back on the corner of Wall and Hoyt just in time for construction.
He was so happy to see that the Crane and the Kinnebrew match.

Just give him a hardhat
He’s gonna help the skyline change.

This month the Gallery Store is featuring encaustic artist Binky Bergsman. Binky has worked with charcoal, pastel, and print, but when she found encaustic, “it was like coming home. She added, “I found my voice and my vehicle. I lose myself in the smells, the colors, the depth, texture and luminosity of a painting. Because encaustic is so immediate and physical I am free to experience the sheer joy of painting. I can paint, layer and scrape to my hearts content.”
Binky is also teaching a Beginning Encaustics class through the Arts Council on April 19th. To learn about this class and other spring art classes click here.
