A friends exhibit!

I have posted before on my friend, Mary.  She has made some wonderful art pieces over the years.  One of my favorites is her series on representing Chihuly in quilts.  Click here to see the post I did on Mary exhibiting in Lapeer, Michigan back in 2010!

This past week, Mary was invited to display her quilts at the Grafted Root Eatery in Grand Blanc.  My other buds and I (LoisAnn, & Carol) met up with Mary to see her quilts on display.  Aren't these wonderful!!!!









Mary captures both nature and Chihuly in this piece.










Now these really look like Chihuly's glass!





This is one of my favorites...although, it is really hard to pick just one!























If I remember correctly, Mary and some of her relatives drove out west years ago to see some of Chihuly's work in person.  Mary took a lot of pictures and was so impressed with his work. 






I think the display was hung very well to show off Mary's work.








Of course we had to stay for lunch at the Eatery!!!   There were so many  sandwich choices  we had to have a glass of wine to help us decide which we wanted! 



 Congrats, Mary!  So great folks in the area will get to see your wonderful work!

  2. I think Mary took a peek into my camera full of photos of the Chihuly exhibit at the Phoenix Botanical Garden from several years back! HA! Her quilts are so realistic- love her display. Thanks for sharing.
