I went to Images Art Gallery this weekend after learning that a former co-worker was exhibiting and…read moreselling his art at this artist owned co-op gallery. I've driven by many times but never noticed it before which is a shame, because there is some wonderful art on display. Currently there is a juried show with scores of pieces from every media. Truly something for everyone from landscapes and photography to more contemporary and profound. I was able to pick up a couple of card size watercolors for framing and a large magnet to brighten my office and refrigerator from my artist friend James Masters and a small card size photo from artist Marla Craven. Images Art Gallery will always be a quick pitstop for me whenever visiting downtown Overland Park in the future. Another easy way to support local artists and add some beauty to your day.

Recently I bought a new Lyman Whitaker wind sculpture from Leopold Gallery. They threw in a bottle…read moreof wine, a Malbec, which I appreciated and enjoyed. The wind sculpture was delivered about a month ago when I was out doing errands, so Jose wasn't able to bring it in for me as he normally would. Brian, my lovely next door neighbor, brought it in for me, It sat in its box, along w/ the box containing the poles, in my dining room until the weather cleared and Brian had time to install it. He came over last week, then discovered he didn't have the brackets he needed to attach it to the deck railing. My brother Jim attached my other wind sculpture to the deck railing w/ zip ties several years ago but those failed during high winds a few months ago and Brian reaffixed it to the railing, using brackets which will outlive me. He ordered more and was able to come over yesterday and install the new one. When he finished he observed that it looked like a menorah, which I hadn't noticed, but it does. I can see it from my seat at the dining table and if I stand up I can see it from my office window and I love the way it looks. Brian can see it from his deck. I'm going to be sending photos of it to Paul, who owns the gallery, so he can see how it looks.

I guess it depends what you're looking for and what they have at the moment. Their prices seemed fair.

I was exploring Downtown Overland Park yesterday (a Saturday) and stumbled upon this shop. I was…read morelooking for a gift for my friend but wasn't looking for anything in particular. When I first walked in, I noticed a variety of cute women's clothing. As I went further back in the store, I thought there was a nice variety of gifts and it was very well organized. They have everything from Kansas City t-shirts, jewelry, children's clothing, trinkets, greeting cards, and more. As I was exploring, the owner (?) of the shop made it a point to chat with me and make me feel welcome. He spoke with me briefly but left me alone after that, which I appreciated because I get irritated if shop workers try to talk to me the entire time or hover. I ended up making it a point to buy something here because of the pleasant experience I had while shopping. From their website, I learned that their mission is to: "create new streams of income for people living in poverty and for Christian ministry and missionary efforts through global trade of products." They did have a lot of handmade items and things from different parts of the world. I highly recommend this shop if looking for a gift, especially if you're not sure what you're looking for!
