Great to see stellar work from the University of Louisville. As an alum, it's great to see this and the unique way to depict life in Kentucky beyond thoroughbreds and bluegrass.

Lovely work! I would happily buy these. One of my dearest friend's Mother was also from Kentucky and she had the BEST one liners�although admittedly a bit more on the racy side. One of my personal favorites of hers was: "Well, that just makes my a** wanna peel bananas!" That would be quite the trick!
