A very Happy and Healthy 2021 to all PSAA members.

My wish for you all this year is an end to the pandemic and the return we have all been missing to our beloved family, friends, and to normal activities in our arts organization. Our new slate of officers is on board and ready to work for the benefit of PSAA. I am excited to have Lonny Hall (co-vice president with Kathy Crocker; Kathy will step down when Lonny is ready to take the reins) and Kimberly Measure (secretary) join Lou Baptiste and I as executive board members for the coming year.

The Education Committee has scheduled classes for the first quarter. Special

thanks to them for all they do behind the scenes to keep us going. In-person classes will be held on Wednesdays at PSAA, and there are also wonderful classes on Zoom scheduled for Januarythrough March. Please see the full list in this newsletter and on

this website.

We are hoping to begin monthly General Meetings for the membership again by holding them on Zoom, so look for more information about that on this website and in email blasts.

Also, in honor of the 40th Anniversary of Pine Shores Art Association, that began February 9, 1981, webmaster Dennis Millar is designing a "new look". Watch for it ! This year we should celebrate us and how far we have come in four decades. If you have any suggestions about how we can do that, or if you want to volunteer to help, please contact me at 609-660-8062. I'd love to hear from you.

I want to tell you how proud I am to be part of this wonderful group of artists/friends and thank you for your trust in me.

Now let's make 2021 the best year ever !

ART CHAT - Nancy Glines

Holiday Greetings everyone!

If we'd been able to meet in person, I would've brought my Christmas card creation to share at Art Chat. (The boat that Santa is sailing belongs to my son and was done in watercolors). Since we can't get together, I wanted to let you know I'm thinking of you, miss you all and hope to see you soon.

Wishing you calm seas

And Fair winds

This Christmas

And all year through,

All the Best,

Nancy Glines
