IN MEMORIUM TO EDITH JONES — SIDNEY ARTIST the mance spoke
Sidney has recently lost one of its finest artists with the passing our already discounted pri Fabrics and cut 9
of Edith Jones. Edith was particularly noted for her serigraphs; her
focus was on nature and our relationship to the natural world. She
studied under Herbert Siebner and Arnold Burrell and she, in turn,
encouraged young local artists to develop their talent. Edith will be
missed.
