Nelson Atkins Evelyn Hofer Eyes on the City

 I noticed in one of my emails that an exhibit was closing next week at the Nelson Atkins.  I had not seen this one so of course I had to go.  In fairness, I haven't seen much of the museum yet.  It's so big.  Today I started at the Eyelyn Hofter Eyes on the City exhibit.  Evelyn Hofer is a photographer who traveled the world.  Some of my favorites:

I know I might be a little weird. 

 I had 2 items that I loved today.  This guy is beautiful.  The whole thing is beaded.






I do a lot of beading with cross stitch but wow.  I can' t even imagine doing this.  It was taller than me.


This is my other favorite.  Ceramic flower.  This is also oversized.  Probably 2 feet long, the flower itself is huge.  I would love to be able to do this.

That's it for today.  I bought the thread I need to finish my cross stitch.  I was shocked to see the sales tax is 9.98%.  I know I have been here for 3 months but I never paid attention before.  Charlie and I will be crafting today.  We'll see what I can dream up for tomorrow.

Until our next adventure.
