Angela Müller has the most extraordinary knack for capturing the elemental beauty of the prairie. Whether painting, photographing, writing, or just living a fabulous life as a busy and successful working mom (with an inspiring outlook and sense of fashion to match), she anchors me back to this place in the most satisfying ways. As anyone who has been to the Mahoney House can attest, I just can’t get enough of Angie.

Today.

I know where we’ll be tomorrow from 2-4! We’re so excited!

If you don’t have a rigid commitment tomorrow, why not come see the opening of David Friday’s “Dreamworld on the Prairie” at the Berger Sandzen gallery in Lindsborg?

This incredibly fun and exciting show has been 50 years in the making. Each painting illustrates the vividly colorful and frenetic subconscious dreamscape of a painter on the prairie.

You’ll recognize elements from all of David’s previous “periods,” culminating in an incredibly fun and satisfying visual journey.

This show is a phenomenal achievement — congratulations, David!
