Artistic friendships

My friends Marianne and Kay are part of an art show at the Carnegie Art Center. The opening was tonight and I roared over there after playing at a lovely wedding reception just in time to celebrate and wander the show. I am so proud of them. It was a visual feast.

Marianne paints these big, textured woods and canvases that look like the landscapes of a lush, fantasy world. I love how her mind works and how she sees things.

Her art is a gorgeous extension of her gorgeous self.

"Back of Butterfly"
It's like a whole world in a butterfly wing.

"Almost Moon"
See the hint of the crescent moon,
hanging in the sky like a jewel?

Kay has a unique and quirky sense of style that ALWAYS works. It's kind of vintage, a little mod and so creative. And it shows in her art.

Kay wore vintage tonight. Cute.

I loved her paintings of girls wearing dresses.

You could almost see the fabric moving and hear it rustle.

So pretty. I wanted them all to hang in a line in my house.

Such talented women. I'm honored to be part of their circle of friends.
