Ladies at the Races
Spring time means Keeneland and The Kentucky Derby are here!
“Ladies at the Races” is one of my favorite paintings. It combines my love of fashion, horse racing and hanging out with great friends (or sisters). I was lucky to have a sister who lived in Lexington, Kentucky. She introduced my family to the excitement and thrill of attending Keeneland. Driving up to the gates and seeing all the cars lined up waiting to cruise down the long lane into the property was just the beginning. The spring weather, tailgate brunch and the sounds of the track announcers set our day in motion.
Last year I went with my husband, sister and friends. It was a perfect day. We had the best of everything. From the perfect weather to our fabulous host who led us to his box seats, to having the opportunity to walk down the center of the paddock as the horses were warming up. And to top it off we were invited to a lovely after event on a veranda at the end of the day. Okay, so I lost every race I placed a bet on ( I actually managed to pick the last place horse), but I did find Keeneland as special as when I went as a child.
“Ladies at the Races” is a sure bet for any Horse Racing aficionado! Available at www.LulaBellart.com
