Meischen include Barb Forrister, Leslie Tucker Jenison, Suzanne Selb White, Fannie Narte, Kate Owens, Annie Smith and Debbie Geistweidt. Finally, artists selected to create their artwork based on a music arrangement by the Copperleaf Quintet include Martha K. Grant, Martha Tsihlas, Gay Ousley, Jack Brockette, Connie Fahrion, Suzan Engler and Margery Hedges. Moonshadow is my interpretation piece based on the poem. Should be interesting to see how folks interpreted each of the three! The show was juried by Ginny Eckley and promises to be a wonderful and engaging. Come meet the artists on Friday evening. We are a very lively group and would love to see you! Please visit http://coppershadetree.com/index.php to learn more.

Wow - what incredible talent!
Thank You!
I love Call of the Wild and Moon Shadow. I think they are my new favorites!
Thanks, Dee! We must have the same taste! They are some of my favorites, too! Am keeping my fingers crossed that they will find a new home with someone who appreciates them. In any case, I am just happy to share my work.
Love all of your pieces, Barb, especially Amethyst Garden. Congratulations! ♥♫♥
Hi Barb, I saw your beautiful work at the Copper Shade Tree Gallery show Feb. 5th. Sorry I didn't get to meet you. I love the color and texture of your work. I was one of the fiber artists also.
Fanny, thank you. I'm so sorry we missed each other. I really enjoyed seeing your work. It is always delightful.
Lana, I, too wished we could have met. I love your gnome piece. Very enchanting!
Best wishes to all of us for a successful show!
