Words from the Blacksmith

Good morning, I hope this newsletter finds all of you healthy, happy and full of love. I can’t believe how fast summer is going and that before we know it the leaves will be turning and we will be hearing the locust chirping at night. Have you taken a moment to see these past few sun sets, oh my they have been incredible and worth sharing with someone special. I wanted to share a photo of my daughter, my friend Steve and myself on a horseback riding adventure we had gone on and had a great day.

The studio has been very busy getting ready for the Soiree in the City event this past weekend we had in Dysart, hats off to our committee that planned it this was a very successful event and I know if you were able to attend you would agree. Anyway I was able to be on the street "creating" while my Mom and my friends, Wendee and Gloria ran the studio we all had a great day. The theme for my demonstration was "Cutting Metal…in Style" So I rusted my dress to wear (if you look closely at the photo of me talking with the ladies you can seeJ.

This little pig went to I.S.U.

This was commissioned to go to Iowa State University for a golf outing for a Foundation. She was made from a barrel. I think she did have "personality".

I LOVE YOU TO THE MOON & BACK!
