Not many too people know this, but my mom is a HUGE art fan. I'm serious, there's not a room in our house that doesn't have a painting, wood carving, or sculpture in it. However, when you live in a town as small as Orangeburg, words travel fast. It wasn't long until someone at the Times and Democrat got wind of Mom's collection and wanted to do a story on it:

Here are some pictures from the article.
And speaking of a thing of beauty, Miss Coppel was kind enough to award me the Magical Blogger Award. Isn't that a pretty picture?
Happy Weekend everyone! :)
That's too cool her collection was in an article! And, congrats on the pretty award.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the award! I love the mask in the second picture. Happy A-Z!

ReplyDeleteI'm here for the A to Z Challenge. Congratulations on your award!
ReplyDeleteWow, your mom sounds amazing. I love the photos of the art on your blog and the story in the news was really great. How cool to have a mom that loves art so much.
I think growing up around so much art would grow a very creative imagination!

Thank you so much! Yes, she is cool! Most of the paintings in my room are of ocean scenes, because I love sea creatures (and I love to write about them as well), so she's trying to inspire me. That's what I love about my mom, she's very supportive of me and everything I do. :) Thanks for the comments.
ReplyDeletewow! such gorgeous art!
