Presidential Chapter Chatter...
Hello everyone, I hope this newsletter finds everyone in good health, lots of happiness and a brush in your
hand. I would like to thank JoAnne Naugler and Cindy Harrison for a wonderful afternoon program. We had a
great time learning something new and sharing an afternoon of laughter and friendship. I want to make more
boxes and now I will be on the search for napkins of all kinds and matching paper to make the box. This next
meeting I will be bringing in some napkins to swap with the ladies I shared the afternoon with. This is going to
be fun!
We also had time for shopping with Wood Items & More with some great prices. We have so many fun things
happening in YHT. Great workshops, afternoon programs, a picnic lunch in June for the membership hosted
by the officers and board, ending the year with the grand finale, the November Installation meeting. There is a
lot to look forward to and spending time with friends makes it even more special.
Spring is officially here according to the calendar. We are all looking forward to warmer days with sunshine
and flowers blooming to make us smile. Take care everyone, the next time I see you we will all have green
grass and maybe my roses will be awake.

1st VP’s Corner...
Hello!!
Well, our seminar has come and gone. Unfortunately, due to extenuating circumstances including a variety of
other painting programs taking place the same weekend, we had to cancel Mary McLean’s Saturday program.
For this, I do apologize.
I want to thank Bonnie Frederico. Her Batik project on Friday was interesting and a lot of fun to do. Our Sunday program, a multi-media constructed box, taught by Jo-Anne Naugler and Cindy Harrison, was different
and also fun. Thank you to our teachers and participants!
Our next painting session is a workshop with Lynne Andrews on Saturday, April 12th. She will be teaching
the Brrrr plate. Lynne will also be teaching the afternoon program at the next general meeting on June 22nd.
The project is called “Lavender for Love”.
Another workshop, a pumpkin themed project taught by Bonnie Frederico, is coming in August.
The September 21st meeting will have an afternoon program taught by Grace Markauskas. She has designed a
charming Santa shelf sitter for us to paint.
Sign-up sheets are available in this newsletter and on the website. Make your reservations now!

At the March meeting...
Now really, whit is more fun than shopping? We had a great selection of surfaces from Wood Items and More and many of us
found just the right piece for our next project.
Bonnie Frederico won Show,
Share and Tell with these two
colored pencil nest/feather designs Bonnie explained that
these are an original design and
they use just six colors. The designs are intended as an introduction to colored pencils for
someone who has never tried
them.. She will be teaching these
at the JB Wood Spring Festival.
Sants even came to the meeting! He’ll
be back in September and would like to
see many of you here. He’s bring Grace
with him!
Many beautiful angel boxes were returned including five painted in oils be students of Mary
McLean. Mary, be sure to thank them for us.
And a very Spring-y-Easter-y setup
for our painted egg swap!

Mary St. Pierre read a letter she received from Cheryl Merolla. Cheryl was one of the founding members of the Yankee Heritage
Tole Chapter of SDP that was formed in 1979 as the first SDP chapter in New England. She now lives in Clearlake, Iowa.
Cheryl also sent along with her letter a bowl painted by Peter Hunt, a wooden shoe painted by Nancy Whorf, a painting workbook
signed by Nancy Whorf and a copy of the book “Priscilla Hauser presents the Peter Hunt Workbook. Peter Hunt is one of the masters whose works are a part of The Decorative Arts Collection . The booklet “The Fathers of American Decorative Painting” Copyright © 2003, Decorative Arts Collection, Inc., includes his biography and several pictures of his work. Several museums and galleries on Cape Cod also house much of his work. Nancy Whorf was an apprentice of Peter Hunt in his furniture studio when she was a
teenager. She parlayed the folk painting skills she learned from Peter into a business she ran for 18 years in Wellfleet before turning
from folk art to fine art exclusively. She first tried watercolors but then switched to oils and the palette knife that became her signature style. And though she loved to travel, she only painted scenes of Provincetown. Her work is also in many museums and galleries on the Cape. Google her and you will see several of her paintings online.
Cheryl wants these, and other pieces that she has, to return to New England, to a member of our chapter and suggested that we auction them at one of our meetings. She wants these four items to stay together. The board has decided that we will auction these items
at our November meeting. In her collection Cheryl also has works of Peter Ompir, Robert Berger, and Christopher Gershwin in ajnd
she plans to send a few pieces to YHT every year.
These are a valuable part of the history of our art. If you are a collector of historical pieces you won’t want to miss this opportunity
to add these to your collection.

News from SDP:
The 2015 SDP CONFERENCE HEADS BACK TO CHICAGO!
The 43rd SDP International Conference & Expo will be held at the Pheasant Run Resort in
St. Charles, Ill. on May 11-16, 2015.
This is from a Facebook post by Linda Lover in a discussion on MDF products: “Having mentioned
MDF wood in a previous post about taking care to wear a mask when sanding, further information comes
from Wikipedia about this popular wood product. Urea formaldehyde is commonly used in binding this
type of wood. Testing has revealed that MDF products emit free formaldehyde compounds that can pose
health risks at various concentrations. Urea formaldehyde is always being slowly released from edges
and surfaces of MDF so when sanding, it's good to wear a mask and when painting, seal all sides.”
We must be careful that the same care we use with all products is applied to MDF. Many companies may
be selling formaldehyde-free MDF but because it is not always labeled we don't know. Just as with wood
products, it is advisable to use a mask when we are sanding MDF.

Happy Birthday to ...
Any one wishing to purchase tickets for
our year long raffle for the wheelbarrow
donated by Cindy Harrison and painted by Barbara
Rolla, please see Barbara Powers who is so kindly
taking care of the tickets. The drawing will take
place at the November meeting. For the Country
Store, I have painted 82 wooden leaves to be made
into pins. I brought a few for everyone to see to decide whether to put a small wooden backing to the
leaf—it was decided not to.
We have more of the plastic sheets if anyone would
like to paint on them for the country store. Ione suggestion was to paint it with blackboard paint to make
a surface for notes. With a magnet on the back, it
could go on the fridge and be used for notes.
If you’d like to paint these, or other pieces of your
own, please contact me. All items for the NET Country Store will have to be returned by the September
meeting. Thank you everyone.

be patterns available as well, from January’s meeting for

choose. Remember that each box you donate will give
you a chance toward November’s Angel Box Raffle!
