My sister Terry is an artist in Louisville where she's a member of PYRO Gallery. This month, each gallery artist was allowed to invite another artist for their annual invitational, and she invited me! So I entered two of my quilts and flew out to Louisville for the opening last Friday. (I finally got to wear the artsy vest that I bought earlier this year in Tubac.)
You can see Terry's two water lily paintings and my sea star quilt behind us, and below is Terry and her husband, Dennis, with her gorgeous painting.
With 36 artists exhibiting there was a big turnout for the opening, including one artist who entertained on a keyboard with some lively boogie woogie.
Terry was on the refreshments committee so we stayed the entire three hours, which led to some chair and phone time toward the end. It was a lot of fun, and the art was very diverse.
Here are more of her water lilies in her cheerful kitchen. She also has a thing for chickens, so I took pictures of chicken art throughout the house.
The first two are by Terry and the last two are by other artists.
I'll do another post on Louisville, which was bursting with spring flowers and tree blossoms as well as being on the path of the eclipse. It was my first time there, and I was impressed with the grand old homes and fun shops and restaurants.
Have a colorful day

How fun for you and your sister to show your work together! Sounds like it was a successful event.
You and your quilts look fantastic! What a wonderful opportunity for you and your sister. I had no idea you had a sister who is a painter - or if I did, I'd forgotten. Her work also looks great. Looking forwarding to more about the trip.
What fun! So glad you got to exhibit your work!!!!
