Rose Wilde is the founder of Wood Icing, "The Great Cover Up" which is a faux finishing product and technique used for furniture and cabinetry. For the last 10 years Rose has traveled all around the country teaching her technique to decorative painters and has always had an online presence selling Wood Icing products.
In the mean time her daughter, artist Heather Haymart, found the product to be very compatible with acrylic paints when used in her unique way of creating abstract paintings. They seemed to find themselves in two different worlds that were really not that far apart from each other. In 2009 the two decided to come together as a team in one location. Heather directs the gallery at the Wood Icing Retail center in the Artopolis area of Chesterfield Mall. Heather creates her beautiful artwork, Rose creates designs for furniture/cabinetry and they both teach their crafts at the studio in the center. Rose and Heather will discuss their work and gallery along with a digital slide presentation as well as answer questions about their respective roles in the Wood Icing success story.
The public and all members of the Saint Louis Artists’ Guild are invited to attend. There is no cost. The Artisans' section members will stay on to conduct their regular business meeting after the presentation. Agenda items will include voting for the 2011-2013 officers and more info about Creative Artisans’ exhibition in September 2011.
