Blog Notes July 1, 2021

Halfway through the year. It's amazing how fast time goes by. (It's true, the older you get...)

First, let me say 'Happy Canada Day' to all our Canadian friends. Today, July 1, 2021, is Canada Day. Learn more here... CANADA DAY

To all my fellow Americans, Happy July 4th! As this country celebrates yet another year of independence, may it grow stronger. Celebrate the red, white, and blue safely, and may it be a good one for you and yours!

This issue brings you two great projects to celebrate your independence.

First up is Marie-Lou Denis with her next installment in her year-long nail painting series, Fun 4TH!

Next, our featured artist this issue, Vera Collier brings us a fun and whimsical patriotic sign project, Happy 4th Plaque.

A convention update seemed like the thing to do as activity seems to be gearing up in that arena. Time to make your reservations and support your conventions!

Our Promoting Painting section is growing with some wonderful designs and supplies.

Big news from Painting Magazine! Be sure to check it out.

Happy 4th!

Smiles!
