INFO
This is a copy of the periodic newsletter I email out. Let me know if you'd like to join the mailing list!
NEWS
I’ve launched a blog called “Idiotic Idioms” which features a weekly cartoon, updated every Monday. Be sure to bookmark it and check back every week to see if you can guess the idiom!
I’ve been busy performing as Co-President for the North Country Arts Center as well. We’ve got a lot of programs coming up, including On My Own Time, and we’re already starting to plan the annual Colors of Fall Festival. If you’re interested in a booth, be in touch. Also, we’re planning an Open Studios Tour in Warren County. Let me know if you’re interested in being a stop on the tour, or would like to be part of the planning committee!
My third solo show of 2007 at Sherburne Memorial Library in Killington, Vermont is still up at the moment, though I will be taking it down soon. Run and see it if you’re in the area! Many thanks to all who showed up for the reception.
ONLINE
The website aephemera.net has gotten herself a makeover, and she’s super pouty about it. Take a look and see for yourself!
I continue to update my etsy shop at least once or twice a week. Check it out to see some new artwork for sale!
EVENTS
If you can believe it, I actually don’t have any shows lined up until August. There may be a group show here and there, but other than that I’m wide open. If you know of a gallery looking for an artist to show before then, please drop me a line!

How to sell your art or craft online
Date: Tuesday, February 19th 2008
Time: 6:00 pm
Fee: $20
This beginner’s class is for the artist or crafter who is finally ready to part with some of their work. We will cover everything you need to know to start up your own online business, including which websites to use, how to use them, describing your work, shipping, taxes, shop policies, promoting, networking, and more.
Introduction to Chainmaille
Date: Saturday, March 1st 2008
Time: 10:00 am
Fee: $45, All materials included
Learn the basics of chainmaille – how to make rings, where to purchase supplies, and how to put together a stunning “fringe” style necklace in your choice of colors! All materials are included in this class, and students will leave with a gorgeous piece of jewelry they make themselves.
* You may notice that the price for this class has gone up. For our first two classes, we were still feeling out the cost of materials and have calculated that in previous dates, we had taken a loss. The price change has been changed to reflect proper coverage of materials used.
GOODBYE
I hope to see you at one of the classes or at the Valentine’s Day dance! Please keep aephemera.net and aephemera.etsy.com bookmarked – they’re updated at least weekly.
