Hello, Ai Fans!
This week, we have a note from our Office Manager, Claire!
Hello Ai Fans!
For those of you who haven't "met" me via phone, email, or TGIF with Claire, I am the newest member of the Art Impressions Team, and our Office Manager! Every day that I walk into our office, I am so blessed by the work that I get to do. Each and every one of our customers and partners are in the business of bringing joy to others--what more could a girl ask for?
I am the mom of two amazing kiddos, Arabella and Caleb, and the wife of my best friend and husband, Ryan. We are a blended family, and 5 years ago he jumped in with our crazy, creative, passionate little trio. As of 3 years ago in Newport, Oregon, we are now a crazy, creative, passionate family of four. Our family loves to perform in local theater, and I myself enjoy quilting, gardening and singing when not keeping the Art Impressions office running!
I started with Art Impressions in December of 2019. This has been quite an unusual time to start a new occupation, particularly in navigating how we have needed to redevelop our class style, and missing out on our usual scheduled shows throughout the U.S., but everyone on this team has been working so hard to make sure that we are adapting and growing to meet your needs at all times. I particularly want to thank Phil, Bonnie, Joel, and Kendra for being gracious and patient as I have learned (and am still learning) the ropes. What a stellar family, right?!
As we pass the halfway mark of 2020, things are still a bit in flux, but I want to let you know that we are still planning a "Summer Release", just on a different schedule than usual. Each of you has been chomping at the bit to get ahold of Bonnie's newest imaginations, and believe me, you will not be disappointed! These new sets that we are putting the finishing touches on are worth every minute of the wait. Thank you for sticking with us, supporting our small business, and allowing us to serve you in your creative outlets. We couldn't be here if it weren't for our amazing customers and fans.
Please join me on Friday, September 4th at 10 a.m. PST for another TGIF with Claire. If there is something that you really would love to have covered, or if you have any questions you would like me to answer live, please don't hesitate to email me at claire@artimpressions.com.
I cannot thank you enough for your patience, understanding, grace and amazing feedback during the 8 months I have been with Ai so far. My greatest hope is that I will get the chance to actually meet many of you as soon as we are able to resume our shows and add new virtual outlets for our company.
In the meantime, stick around, there are great things ahead!!
- Claire
