Dear Friends:

Congratulations to the New Orleans Saints on winning the Super Bowl! What a wonderful morale-booster for the City of New Orleans, which is still recovering from Hurricane Katrina! Can you believe I made four dozen deviled eggs to take to a Super Bowl party?

The votes are in for the two paintings I showed you last week for this year's adult Society Members-Only Print. Collectors voted almost 2:1 in favor of my second version of Angel in my Garden. I'm also ready to show you my painting for this year's junior Society Members-Only Print. It hasn't been titled yet.


This currently untitled painting will be the junior Members-Only Print for 2010. Children aged 17 and under who either join the P. Buckley Moss Society or renew their memberships in 2010 will be eligible to purchase this print.


This version of Angel in my Garden will be the adult Members-Only Print for 2010. Those adult collectors either joining the Society or renewing their memberships in 2010 will be eligible to purchase this print.

I'm still working on my painting for horse rescue that I first told you about a few weeks ago, but it's almost finished. This painting will be released as a print during my show with Finn Gallery here in St. Petersburg, Florida, the weekend of March 12-14, and a portion of the proceeds from the edition will benefit Casey's Place Animal Sanctuary, Inc., in Brooksville, Florida, and other horse rescue organizations.

Stolen Quilt Alert! I donated two of my unique, hand-painted quilt squares to the National Make It With Wool Sewing Competition Fundraiser. Make It With Wool supplied the woolen fabric squares for me to work on. One of the squares became the centerpiece of a large quilt that was to be raffled off last month during Make It With Wool's national event. On January 20, 2010, just three days before the drawing for the raffle winner was to take place, the quilt and several contestant prizes were stolen from the "secure" room at the Sheraton Downtown Nashville (Tennessee).

Please take a look at these pictures and notify The Moss Portfolio immediately if you see this quilt.


This quilt is very large; not a wall hanging.


This is a close-up of my donated square, which is the centerpiece for the quilt.

The Moss Museum in Waynesboro, Virginia, received approximately another two feet of snow last weekend. In Luray, where my son John lives, it snowed three feet! Artisans Grill in Luray, where John is the chef, has been closed for over a week, and everyone is praying to go back to work. Mathews got approximately three inches. More is expected Tuesday through Wednesday. I'm so glad I'm in Florida right now!

Happy Valentine's Day this Sunday!

Love,
Pat
