Dear Moss Society Members,

 

Welcome! This is the August 2018 edition of the Moss Society newsletter.

 

Pat Moss News

Pat has been working at a brisk pace all summer. Patty, her daughter notes that, “her work continues to be astounding. I love the subtle new colors that she is introducing.” You won’t want to miss seeing Pat this fall as she begins her Fall tour soon. Be sure to check her schedule online or in her weekly newsletter as more dates will be added.

 


New artwork to be released soon.

 


Society Member News

We are sad to announce the passing of longtime Society member Leland Roe. Many of you may remember that when Pat would visit Iowa, Leland would drive her around. She always looked forward to those visits and seeing his big smile. She referred to him as “my Iowa driver.” We will miss Leland. Thank you to Judy, his wife, for her thoughtful donation to the Moss Foundation in memory of Leland.

 

The Moss Portfolio has announced that the 2018 Society bead is finally in production! It has been a long journey getting this bead. The Portfolio is grateful for everyone’s extraordinary patience during this time. The bead is beautiful. Take a look!
