Several artists gathered at the gallery for a meeting and a painting session on November 10. Pat Shephard, Jim Utsler, Leslie Kesler, Diane Hausmann, Faye Carter, Elaine Sedlak, Jean Fleming Mazur and Andy Watson painted Christmas decorations. The ornaments are unique in that they begin as slices of a 4 inch diameter branch that Faye Carter brought. Each artist painted two ornaments in acrylic. They are available for $ 20.00 each. FRAA could do a little more before Christmas. The profits will be donated to FRAA.
The association is open to anyone interested in art.
It was created in the early 90s and meets every two months and offers summer “paintings” and potlucks. The annual membership fee is $ 20.00.
