Seabolt, who was the art department chair at Westminster
High School, said that when she was in her 20s she saw a woman exhibiting the
now-rare tinsel painting at a fair in Pennsylvania. She was so impressed that
she learned as much as she could about the craft; gaining knowledge and skills
that she now passes on to her own students in an effort to keep this “dying
art” alive.
Tinsel painting was highly popular in England and France in
the 1800s. It started as an artistic way for women to re-purpose foil, or
tinsel, as the English called it, from teas that their husbands brought home.
Tinsel painting involves painting in reverse on glass with stains and acrylic
paint. Once painted, foil, or tinsel, is placed behind the transparency, giving
it a glitter.
“Tinsel painting is a beautiful type of art that is not
around anymore. I teach it in hopes that the craft will not die out completely”
Seabolt said.
Seabolt spends her summers teaching silk scarf painting and
tinsel painting at Common Ground
held at McDaniel College. She also
teaches watercolor classes at Carroll
Community College and at her very own Cat Tracks Studio… http://westminster.patch.com/articles/artist-profile-carolyn-seabolt-keeping-the-art-of-tinsel-painting-alive

Seabolt’s works can be viewed at the Shop at Cockey’s, Mat About You in Ellicott City, and by
appointment in her own Cat Tracks Studio.

Eagle Archive by Kevin Dayhoff: A Tribute to John Hosfeld
A Tribute to John Hosfeld

November 20, 2011
A Westminster institution, John Raymond Hosfeld, age 74, of
Westminster, died on Thursday, November 10, 2011 at the Carroll Hospital
Center.
He was a longstanding fixture on Main St. in Westminster
where he owned and operated The Flower Box and practiced his trade as an
artist, florist and designer.
To be in the company of Hosfeld was to be overwhelmed by his
kindness, pride in his art, and invigorated by his enthusiasm for our
community. At a time when so many folks in our community demand attention and
want to know what Carroll County is going to do for them; Hosfeld was always
looking for more things to do for Westminster.
Hosfeld was a 1956 graduate of Westminster High School and
the New York School of Floral Design. He took over the business from his late
Aunt Grace M. Benson who started the shop on Main Street in Westminster in
1951.
He owned and operated the shop from August 5, 1965 until he
retired on November 1, 2009.
He was born on June 30, 1937 in Taneytown and was the son of
the late Charles H. Hosfeld and Doris (Sell) Staub and pre-deceased by his stepmother,
Mary Yingling Hosfeld and a sister, Kay G. Hosfeld-Flater.
The community gathered at the Myers-Durboraw Funeral Home on
Willis St. last Monday to give thanks for the life and times of Hosfeld. His
pastor, Rev. David S. Schafer from St. Benjamin’s (Krider’s) Lutheran Church
conducted the services.
Hosfeld was surrounded by his favorite flowers, gardenias,
lilies and roses, friends and family including his life-long friend, Billy J.
Frey; his brother, Richard C. Hosfeld and wife Helen; and great-nephews and
niece, Xavier, Sebastian, and Scarlett Joseph.
Hosfeld’s niece, Sherri Hosfeld Joseph, also an artist and
the owner of Birdie’s Coffee Café, shared poignant memories of her uncle. She
represents the third generation of Hosfelds to own a small business on Main St.
in Westminster. She has often remarked that her Uncle John was her inspiration
to open a business.
Joseph noted that Hosfeld was paralyzed “since 1965 and he
spent the majority of his life in a wheelchair. Never complaining, or expecting
special treatment because of his disability, he lived life to its fullest -
traveling, enjoying friends and family. When I was a young girl, his wheelchair
was to me, magical - not something that held him back, but something that
propelled him forward...
“One of the things I respected most about my Uncle was his
unwavering commitment to be just exactly who he was. In a small town, he was
able to become an institution on Main Street.
“People loved my Uncle for who he was - a friendly,
thoughtful, caring man - who made beautiful flower arrangements for every
occasion in just about everyone’s life in Westminster and Carroll County. He
touched the lives of so many and received remarkable acceptance in return.”

For someone like me, who grew up in a small agriculture-based country town in the heartland of the birth of our great nation, the holiday has always had a special meaning. I have often wondered why. http://www.thetentacle.com/ShowArticle.cfm?mydocid=4485
