23 years ago Angie Jensen and I began our Turtle Girls adventure when we purchased The Painted Turtle Art Shop from Ruth Tye McKenzie . We accomplished a lot and met many wonderful people in those 23 years. About 6 months ago Angie Grace Jason from Wazison Arts made us an offer to buy our little art supply store. We accepted and await the sale finalizing.
In a short time from this anniversary date we will be passing the store on to it's new owner so this was our last anniversary cake at The 🐢.

LU Student juried exhibition opening & awards night. Our award winner was not there so hopefully we'll get a pic of her when she comes to the store.
Angie Jensen & I were surprised with beautiful flowers and a lovely thank-you covering much of our Turtle Girlz history supporting LU Visual Arts by Chair Kristy Homes.
We are selling the Painted Turtle Art Shop to Angie Grace Jason at Wazison Arts on about April 30th so we can retire.
