"The Omelet Sisters"

A couple of years ago we tried an urban chicken 

experiment in our backyard. We had four hens.

Esmerelda

Wynona and Lucy

and Liberty.

They were quite fun to watch and started laying eggs on Easter weekend 2012. After they ate everything green in our backyard and turned our flower beds into dirt bathes, we decided they would be better off living in the country.

I made a quilt with images of our chickens.

I'm thrilled that "The Omelet Sisters" was honored with the 

Corky Stukenbruck Award in the Visual Art Society of Texas' 

25th Annual Juried Members Exhibition. 

The members exhibition is in the Texas Woman’s University 

Fine Arts Building's East and West Galleries. The building is located at the corner of Oakland and Texas Streets in 

Denton, Texas, through August 7, 2014. 

The building is open Monday - Friday from 9-4.

It's a beautiful show. I hope you will stop in to take a look.
