Heidi England /Silver Palette Award

Heidi England, recent classes, Japan
This week an American Folk Artist received the Silver Palette Award from the Society of Decorative Painters.  This is a high honor and well deserved.  Heidi England has taught folk art painting for 40 years,  zig zagging across country and continent.

I have had the privilege of painting with Heidi for many years.  Her designs are counted among my favorite possessions.  It is wonderful that her talents and dedication have been recognized by the membership of the prestigious Society of Decorative Painters.

Nominated by her peers, Heidi was chosen for these qualifications:


1. Promoted and stimulated interest in tole and decorative painting 

2. Elevated and maintained a national level of quality of tole and decorative painting. 

3. Has been instrumental in dispensing information about tole and decorative painting.
 
4. Has lent distinction to the field of tole and decorative painting. 




In response to a note of congratulations, Heidi had this comment:


"This Silver Palette represents 40 years of teaching !  I hope to continue to represent our Society and all my wonderful teachers that I have had through the years !"

Thank you Heidi!  We look forward to sharing many more years and happy painting hours with you!
