We walked over to the Art Show last weekend.
It always amazes me at how many talented people there are right here in my community!
What fun to see all of the beautiful art, greet neighbors and meet new people.
We enjoyed it!
So what’s in the bag?
We bought one painting by Marilyn ‘Mickey’ Scott entitled “Denizens of the Deep”.
This was the perfect spot in our living room to enjoy it!
One more photo of beautiful paintings!
I’m joining Katherine’s Corner for Favorite Things
and Jann for Share Your Cup !
Have you been to an Art Show lately?
It’s inspiring, isn’t it?

That looks like fun Diane. The painting you bought is beautiful! How neat that you got to meet the artist.
We haven't been to any art shows. I'll have to be on the look out.
Looks like you had a lot of fun. I like your painting. Do you paint?
Love the painting you bought. Looks like a delightful show!
Hugs
I haven't been to an art show in ages. Looks like you had fun!
First, you look so young...and you are so pretty! Love your picture...and those are just wonderful paintings....love the one of the old woman looking down at her dog, and he looking up at her. I have never been to anything but an arts and craft show. I love going to them, but they always come on the weekend, and I work every weekend now (and have for 12 years), so it's been a long time since I have been to one of them!
You are so lucky Diane to have such a huge show to attend. The talent is AMAZING. I love how Marilyn captured the fish in such a mystical way. Thank you so much for taking us along. :)
I love it! wish I could have been there too. Looks like so much fun!
i love it too..it is very inspiring..

Beautiful painting. I love art shows and supporting artists! Such a talent that is under appreciated by some.
What a fun outing. Such an amazing group of talented artists.
Surely there is an art show in this University town I could attend?
I was always out at auctions looking for vintage treasures, never great art paintings
Your painting does fit right in your spot reserved for it
Thanks for showing it
I love art shows, craft fairs, anything like that! I'll be glad when it warms up, we enjoy going down to Fairhope,Al and walking around at their arts and crafts fair. It looks like y'all had a wonderful time!
Have a great weekend,
~Dorothy~
What a beautiful painting you bought. I love where you put it in your home.

Have a wonderful day my friend.

That new painting is a beauty! And it goes perfect with your seaside collection. Art shows are fun to attend, that's for sure.
I do love your new painting. It fits perfect in that spot you have it. Have a wonderful weekend!

That painting is really special and looks perfect in its new location at your house. Love the colors of it. My daughter paints, which awes me. She didn't get it from my side of the family, but her father and his sister and her paternal grandmother all painted. I haven't been to an art show in a while (except for hospital corridors).
Wow! What an impressive collections of talented people. Love your new artwork!
Loved seeing all the beautiful paintings!! The one you chose is perfect!!
Diane, I love your new painting, and I love the shell vignette under it. You look so cute in these pictures. I know it would be fun to meet you in person. lurie
So much talent in one room! FUN!!

HI Diane! Oh, this looks like fun and what a pretty place for an art show. Your painting is so pretty and looks perfect where you've hung it! Now I can just see you dancing! ;)
Be a sweetie,

That was the perfect painting for your spot in the living room!
Enjoy it and your neighborhood!

Hello Diane,
While I was on my sweet friend, Marcia's blog, I noticed your comment talking about sugar-free candy. I used to eat sugar-free candy until I read a post that my friend at "Chatelet" wrote about Aspartame, which I think is something that sugar-free sweeteners have in common. It was very interesting to me, and you might want to read it yourself. Her blog is on my profile page, "Chatelet" and it is a recent post on Feb. 21. I just thought I'd pass the info. on to you. I love chocolate, and I can't eat sugar, like you, so I would often try sugar-free things. But after reading her post, I no longer do. Hope this helps you. I'm glad I came across you on Marcia's blog. She's such a gem. Have a nice day, Diane.

Wow- That is an impressive art show and I love your painting you purchased. xo Diana
I love the painting you bought! It looks great in your home. It's been years since I went to an Art show but I always enjoy them so much!
hugs, Linda
Beautiful painting. You must be a very proud owner.
What struck me most though is you all are wearing capris, shorts and sandals already. I am so jealous. We're still wearing boots and slopping around in slushy snow :(
Cindy
Diane, this looks like so much fun. I can only imagine how much I'd enjoy browsing through such a place with you, my friend. Love the beautiful painting you purchased and how pretty it looks with those gorgeous shells of yours.
XOXO's
How fun to browse and look at all the wonderful talent. I just love the piece you bought.

Beautiful.
What a treasure.
Woolie hugs

Your painting is so pretty and looks perfect next to the pretty bottles and shells.
This sounds like a delightful show to attend. Your purchase is lovely and I loved the table of shells.
What a beautiful painting..and a ocean theme to go with your pretties.

Now that looks like fun....hope you are well...and enjoy your weekend. xo
Sounds like you had a wonderful time Diane. And what a great painting you got. Wishing you a wonderful weekend.

Just beautiful. It look amazing in that spot! I have always enjoyed the art shows they put on at Sun City, where my mom lives. I have purchased anything though! How fun!
Karen
When my aunt lived in Orlando, we loved going down to the art shows she attended. I agree, there are a lot of talented people out there! XOXO
Isn't that something! You are right, so many talented people! In my next life I want to be able to paint...And sing lol!
St Augustine's is so fun isn't it, I go every year. If you go and want to know a good place to stay just holler!

Love your new painting, and I love seeing everyone in their summer clothes :)

Don't tell me you were at Stone Creek...or maybe OTOW?
I enjoy these shows. We usually go to the Arts and Crafts thing in the fall.
"Denizens of the Deep" is a beautiful work!
Beautiful! You have such a friendly and warm smile!
Art shows and studio tours are my favourite things.

Oh this is just sweet! I love art shows!!! You picked a great piece! :D

I like your choice of a painting to buy, and art shows are great fun, I agree. All that talent in one convenient place.
Oh how fun!! The Vermeer reproduction, Girl With a Pearl Earring, is my most favorite painting ever. What a great time you had---I'd love to attend an art show! This week's Homemaking Linkup is up and I would love to have you join, if you haven’t already.
Blessings,
Mrs. Sarah Coller
