Hi, it's Jae again... i own Feather Moon Beading and Sisters Embroidery Co.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've gone exclusive with TAW Gallery in Tumalo, OR so when i pulled out of the Sisters gallery that left me with a much larger supply of my dichroic pendants than i need. As it says in my listings on etsy...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16px;">Too much inventory means your discount!" </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Dichroic glass is almost impossible to photograph, at least by me! It's really gorgeous in person, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
depth and all kinds of colors. For instance, if you get a blue pendant... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it's gonna be like 8 kinds of blue! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These have been a collaborate effort between Debe and i that sell REALLY well! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lucky me, she makes her strands to match my pendants and Man, do all the ladies love them! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Barbara developed an interest in art at a very early age. Before she could even write she was drawing realistically! </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Spending much of her time drawing, she continued developing her talent throughout high school with the addition </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">of private lessons and summer classes at the American Academy of Art, Chicago. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Attending Northern Illinois University, Metropolitan State College, Denver, and the University of Northern Colorado, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">she was introduced to many diverse styles. This diversity can be seen in her painting.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">For the last 28 years Barbara has painted full time and shared her knowledge through workshops and classes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Barbara's use of media and the exploration of media and techniques is a constant focus of her work. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Combining elements of </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">the Impressionists, Georgia O'Keefe, and Van Gogh, it is best termed contemporary realism featuring closeup images to invite the viewer to "enter" and participate in every scene she paints! </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Working in acrylics, oils & watercolor frees her to be able to create unique effects that are impossible with </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">one medium alone.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Barbara in her studio in Sisters, OR</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">The content of Barbara's art seeks to capture the energy, essence and spirit of Nature and </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">to portray our relationship to Nature and Spirit. This goes along with the notion that we are all part of a cohesive Whole, and each part of that Whole, makes a difference and contributes a unique and different perspective. A great reverence for Life and for each living thing, is the driving force behind her paintings. She believes great art is about vision, and vision is about inner Truth. She paints her inner vision, the truth of each subject as she sees it, always striving to catch the essence of the subject. </span><br />
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Here, she will never compromise. She will always listen to her own inner Voice.</span></div>
<div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Reaching through the veil of what we call reality, are those artists who are bridges between the worlds of Spirit and Matter. Bringing through visions of stunning beauty, compelling harmony and peace, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">these beings seek to reconcile </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">these </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Worlds for all humanity. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Barbara Berry is one such artist. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Each work encompasses a unique view of the subject, whether a close- up of a Nature subject, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">an image of man's relationship to Spirit, or a painting of Light & Shadow. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Each image seeks to capture the subject's essence and recapture and communicate the emotions of the artist.</span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">She is a member of the Watercolor Society of Oregon and has been included in many juried national exhibitions.</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">In 2004 she was included in Who's Who in Executives and Professionals. Her work is in collections </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">throughout the U.S., Europe,and Australia. Barbara is currently represented by several galleries in the Western U.S. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

We all know that the cost of silver has gone up right along with gas but did you know it's supposed to go up even more in the upcoming market? As quoted from "The Sovereign Investor":
" A controversial new silver report insists silver prices are about to explode.
Savvy investors are secretly waiting for silver to reach what they call ‘the profit point.’
Once silver prices hit this point, its going to return its owners windfall profits fast.
Here’s why.
In the past, a lot of investors got rich when silver went from $6 to $50 in one year.
Average investors think silver’s already too high, but the truth is,
the best time to get into silver is yet to come!"
http://www.monex.com/images/charts/SB_LINE_1825DAY.PNG
As quoted from "CoinTrackers":
"The current price of Sterling Silver (anything) is $26.58 per Ounce (oz), or $0.94 Per Gram (g)
Sterling silver is defined as 92.5% pure silver and is widely used in high end cutlery, jewelry, and pitchers.
The other 7.5% is usually made of some other metal like copper.
Most sterling silver pieces will have the word sterling somewhere on the bottom or back,
as an example look at the photo adjacent of the back of a large sterling silver spoon."
Hmmmmn. Maybe we need to do some investing?

Not everyone is familiar with Sisters, OR. It's a little blip on a map, really, so it's not surprising. What you have to know, though, is that these people in Sisters know their <a href="http://sistersoutdoorquiltshow.com/" target="_blank">quilts</a>. Quilts, and the resulting tourism from their massive quilt-hangy-exhibit-thing, is how a lot of these folk make their living.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Sisters, OR is to quilts what Seattle is to coffee, what Silicon Valley is to computers, what Florida is to old people. So when someone in this quilting town starts selling quilty stuff, you had better believe she knows what she's doing.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Jae and Lissetta pieced together these tiny wall hangings with cotton, thread, and <em>awesome.</em> The embroidered flower is made of thousands of tiny stitches of high quality joy.</div>

Snap this up, you guys. Don't worry. I won't tell anyone.</div>

It’s official. Sisters Artisans, the six-person group of artists making artsy things and selling them now has a blog.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
“An art blog, in <i>my</i> internet?” you ask. (<i>Rudely, I might add.)</i> In any case, it’s not exactly an art blog. Yes, there will be art from our favorite six featured on here. You’ll also see biographies, chatter on artsy-schmartsy daily life, and we might even throw some helpful how-to articles at you.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
This kind offer would probably be even more appealing if you knew, really, what Sisters Artisans is. If you’re an astute reader you picked up on my subtle mention in the first paragraph. The bit that went, <i>the six-person group of artists making artsy things and selling them</i>. Their art is diverse, ranging from sexy scarves to pretty paintings to fabulous fused glass to anything else for which I can find alliteration.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
Barbara, Ann, Jae, Debe, Crow, and Debbie are all hotshots in their respective mediums, and they’ve banded together to give each other support. Conveniently for you, beloved reader, this also means a sizeable percentage of the world’s good stuff has been placed together for you to access easily.</div>
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 12pt;"> Expect a post soon featuring one of our ultra-talented artists. Until then, one of her scarves for your consideration:</span><br />
