Fundraiser Update, New Paintings and Prints

The fundraiser print, "First Responder" is progressing well. We have raised over $1100.00 to date for fire companies and will continue to raise funds with the print for this cause. The Garman family will be distributing funds to local fire companies. We will also be donating some framed prints of "First Reponder" for several local benefit auctions. We will update on the total of the fundraiser this fall before the release of my third print in Hannah's series.

I have also finished some new paintings this month to be sold on ebay under username: starlitestudios. 16x20 prints of each of these are also available from the artist as well. You may contact me for details at my email address: marycharlesart@peoplepc.com.

First Friday Painting Demo

On First Friday (December 3, 2010) I will be demonstrating my painting from 5-8 PM at the Old Country Store in Intercourse, PA. I will be painting a new 6" snowman bowl for the demo. The store carries a good selection from my 130+ hand-painted designs in bowls ranging from 2-1/2" to 9" in size. Bowls are available upstairs in the People's Place Quilt Museum Shop and downstairs in the Old Country Store . The 13th Annual Holiday Celebration for the town includes the Annual Christmas Tree Lighting at the Pequea Valley Public Library and many fun family activities. Stores in the area will be open during the evening for your shopping convenience. The full list of events and times for the weekend are recorded in the Dec. 1st issue of the Conestoga Valley & Pequea Valley Penny Saver.

Update on Fund Raiser Print & Black Friday Show

Last Friday I signed prints and sent out the first mailing for "First Responder," a fundraising snowman print in memory of Hannah Garman. I also delivered some prints to the Garman family for donating to charities. Proceeds from the print will benefit local fire companies and several other charities.

Also, on Black Friday, my art will be on display at Central Market in Lancaster, PA (across from the S. Clyde Weaver stand) from 5PM-8PM. "First Responder" prints will be available at the showing among other original works like "Sunflowers" pictured above.
