-Guest speaker and workshop with Julie Stritzel

-Julie Striztel is a self-taught artist. She started making dolls and doll clothes as a little kid and has been doing something ever since. Her art includes music and played flute, piccilo, saxaphone and recorders throughout school and college. Art is in her blood as her Mom, Grandmother and Aunt are creative artist. She taught herself how to make things she wanted including bead weaving on a loom, jewelry, and strung beads. She was also a jeweler apprentice and worked as a pearl stringer.
For our meeting she will talk about sculptures coming to be from idea to completion. She will present a small Ginkgo tree that will be assembled from various component pieces. She will have pre-cut wire for the frame and bead-strung wire for everyone to make at least one hopefully 2 Ginkgo leaves. If you have a personal set of wire cutters to use please bring them. We will have some members bringing extra cutters for those who do not have their own. Julie will also have a page of instructions for the whole tree typed up to hand out.
Please make every effort to attend. We hold program/informational meetings every other month on the last
Tuesday of the month. Don’t’ forget to mark your calendars for The Gathering June 13th. A once a year gathering of women artist for a day of art and sister-hood.
