A few days ago, Larry and I got away. It was just to Ft Worth for an ART exhibit, but it was fun to get away for a few hours. The day was gloomy with very strange clouds. The clouds made the 45 minute trip west, interesting.
The Kimbell ART Museum has the NEFERTARI Exhibit until March. (I hope to see it again!)
The museum let only a few people in the exhibit space at a time, we all wore masks and social distanced. It was not terribly busy and I felt amazingly safe.
As an ARTist, I was amazed at the pieces (230 of them!) in this exhibit. They were well preserved and if painted, the paint colors were spectacular. I was in awe. Queen Nefertari died in 1250 BC.
This is the first exhibit I have been to in a year. It was different and somewhat distracting. I enjoyed every moment.
After looking at each piece of Nefertari’s life twice, we went to the gift shop. There was a beautiful leather purse by an Italian ARTist, I liked it very much but could not justify spending $190.00 on something I did not need. BUT…..Larry did buy me a needle felted Lamb in a pink dress. Her ears are crooked and wears a cross body bag. I fell in love with her instantly. Her name is Amy.
I’m not sure when I will go to an ART exhibit again, so this one will have to live in my heart awhile.
Happy Friday! Please stay safe and happy.
Love you beyond the moon and stars.
