A trip to Roots Up Gallery is always on my Savannah To-Do-List. As described on its website, it is a place celebrating Southern Folk Art, Local & Regional Artists...with Unique Finds from Creative
Minds.
I had a bit of a shock when my first foray revealed that the gallery was no longer there! But Google happily revealed that they had simply moved and their new space was terrific and only a few blocks from our place here.
Last year my fondness of Roots Up prompted a collage of their old Liberty Street shop and as you can see Patsy Cline is a fan too. You can check out the whole post here.
I am also once again a most fortunate gal because my husband got me an early birthday gift ~ a most wonderous Frida Kahlo inspired piece by Reverend Johnny Ace. This is my second piece by the Reverend from Roots Up ~ which was last year's birthday gift. Happiest Birthdays to me!

Frida will surely compliment all the crowd from Rock and Roll Heaven.

Happiest of birthdays indeed - and you get to enjoy your present even longer because of getting it early!! Did you show the Roots Up folks your collage? I bet they'd want one......................
