Pushing the boundary with materials

Super cold February, with an average temperature of 11 degrees didn't keep the painters in their studios. We had a 'show and tell' session of works created from Sandy Heath's hand made paper. December 2013 she brought in a set of various and textured colored papers made from recycled cotton with Linda Piper. Each artist selected one with a year to decide how to use it.

Our host, Sherrill treated us with a delicious and unusual cake from a recipe she learned on her recent African trip, the unfamiliar flavor of an African liquor made a delicious and interesting dessert.
