Dimensions Newsletter - Nov/December 2006Mission Statement: Visual artists and supporters encouraging and promoting the arts in the community.
COLLAGE BY
Pat Nix In the blink of an eye,
nature flips the switch and we are engulfed in wet, dark, Fall.
It is not surprising that most civilized societies have had festivals
and holidays to lighten the darkness at this time.
I already see a glow of coming festivities. November’s First Friday
Art Walk was quite wet and dark, but there were people everywhere and good
cheer was contagious. It was so
nice to see the store lights on.
The six places I visited, all had good crowds.
We owe Renne Brock-Richmond a vote of thanks for her hard work in
getting this going with the merchants.
December should be even better. Sunday the This will be my last
COLLAGE and the last newsletter of 2006.
I want to thank the membership for a successful year of exhibits and
activities. I look forward to
working with in-coming president, Connie Alexander, for an even better 2007. Please come to the
December 7, Holiday Luncheon where Connie will receive the magic gavel.
A very brief meeting will be held after the luncheon with all 2006
and incoming 2007 committee chairs.
Current committee chairs should bring any materials they have to pass
on to new committee chairs for 2007.

Proceeds from the video sales will go to the new Sequim High School
Arts Club. December Demonstration Terri Shinn will
demonstrate her collage techniques. The inspiration for Terri’s art comes
from her sense of humor and outlook on life. Experimentation is an essential
and on-going process, as she fears stagnation. In her pieces, she plays with
her own inner visions and sense of color.
Terri’s work has been selected into many regional shows.
She has also had her art published in numerous magazines and books.
Terri is a past-President of the Arts Council of Snohomish County and
the 2005 “Artist of the Year for
