Hamilton County Artists’ Association’s Walt Thacker and Sherry Cartwright enjoy the charcuterie table of refreshments as the open house and artists’ reception got started on Friday night at the HCAA “Artistic Blooms” exhibit. About 60 guests attended, “so it was a good night,” said Noblesville’s Patty MacInnis, a HCAA artist. Guests took home free daffodils, provided by Little Petal Farm of Noblesville. There are 63 floral paintings by 33 artists on exhibit during the month of May, with the Art Center being open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays, May 13 and 20, at the gallery, 195 S. FIfth St., Noblesville. The popular vote for People’s Choice award on Friday night was won by John Dierdorf with his painting of “Spring Showers.”
