September in Parguera

Fall 2008 Newsletter

Hard at work

Well, I'm back in New Jersey with family, awaiting the 2 shows I'm attending in September. Ken is also spending time with family...it's his Mom's birthday this month (Happy Birthday, Barb!). We both really needed time off of the boat because, unfortunately, our precious Czar passed away in July. He was a good old guy...a real Salty Dog.To see some photos of his life aboard Ruff Life, click on the photo below..	This is Wilson (think Castaway), my very first higuera, found in a box in Mom's attic. I remember thinking how I couldn't go wrong with carving a pumpkin. I am now initiating my "Find Wilson" program, whereby every month (beginning in October), Wilson's icon will appear somewhere on the site (I'll make it easier...no obscure pages like Contact or Sitemap). During the first week of every month, I'll send out a short email. The first person to correctly find Wilson will win a surprise gift! This is a great way for you to keep abreast of new work, and give you ideas for the holidays. They're right around the corner. AAHHH!!!	Upcoming Shows September 20-21 Fine Arts & Crafts at Anderson Park Upper Montclair, NJ Click here for directions and more information.
		Congratulations to Mary W. of Danbury, Conn, this quarter's winner of a Mini Basket! If you haven't already signed up for our drawings, it's easy. Just go to the top of the page to enter. And remember...I never give out email addresses to any third party.

People can't just "drop by"; they must be ferried back and forth by the Captain, unless they want to swim, of course. Jealous?

I needed a "filler", so I thought I'd show off a couple of pieces.

The newsletter comes out quarterly, but add me to your 'Favorites' list and check periodically for new pieces. And remember...there's always a good excuse to visit the Gift Shop pages!
Thanks for viewing.
