Congratulations to artist Karen Roland 2025-07-10 - Frankfort, KY - Photo from personal collection. Artist and Secretary of the Adair County Arts Council, Karen Roland, shared, "Do we have a great Governor in Kentucky or what? At the artists' reception at the Capitol, Governor Beshear met and talked to every artist-about THEIR piece (photography, too) hanging in the hallway of the Capitol. You can go on Flicker and see all the pics and art. Mine is titled, "Wonder Whip Neon," painted in Owensboro, KY during the Bronze Buffalo last year. I had gotten an award of merit for it then."
