Arkansas Arts Center, Little Rock, Ark.
I've decided to use these Sunday art posts as shout-outs to different people who read my journal. I know some people are sensitive about revealing personal information about themselves on the Internet, so I won't identify the person to whom I'm shouting out unless that person has listed a location in his or her public user info. But starting today, if you happen to live in the city where the featured artwork is located, you can assume that you're the person of whom I was thinking when I selected that particular work of art, even if I don't mention you by name.
The Arkansas Art Center has a very good collection of craft art, much of which can be viewed online. More information about the artist can be found here.
