Feathured Artisan At Valley Artisans, Epsom

 

The Featured  Artisan at Valley Artisans in Epsom is decorative painter Carol Bell of Hopkinton.

 

Carol has been a member of Valley Artisans for 7 seasons as a decorative painter. She has been painting with acrylics for about 20 years.

 

Starting out with lessons from a local artist she has gone on to discover her own style. Attending conventions and workshops has given her an opportunity to learn new styles and techniques.

 

She especially enjoys working in acrylics because of the fast drying times and the versatility. Specializing in painting on T-Shirts, canvas tote bags and clay pots. She also enjoys painting on slate, wood items and glass. Her newest item this year are the caps and visors. So much fun to paint and wear.

 

You’ll find many of her items feature a feminine floral design but can switch to whimsical or folkart style when the mood strikes. Love of nature and pretty things, she tries to convey that in her work.

 

She is donating one of her hand painted t-shirts for the July drawing. (the end)

 

Donna is an active member helping to work towards the mission of providing a outlet for creative New Hampshire Artisans to market their creations. Valley Artisans is always seeking New Hampshire Artisans who make good quality and unique NH made Products.

 

Contact us for information 736-8200 Wed thru Sunday 10a to 6p.

 


 

 Epsom Food Pantry

 

All is well at our Food Pantry.  A new addition is our vacuum cleaner and we are enjoying using it. 

 

The Pantry is growing with a new family about every week.  Another generous donation from a club in town.

 

 Some of our expenses are mileage for the men who pick up the USDA food as well of the weekly trip to Manchester to pick up our delivery. These donations are also appreciated to cover those costs as well as our phone bill.  Remember your fresh veggies if you have an abundance when you crop comes in.

 

We like the children to have fresh food when it is possible.  Again many thanks for all your support.

 

Until next time,  Priscilla
