There was also a painters exhibit--with all the paintings hung along a fence. They were truly beautiful! BUT--as soon as you stopped to look at one--the artist(s) (sitting nearby) would jump up and try to convince you to buy any, or many, of them.

My sister really wanted one--but it cost 30 Lats (about $ 70). She talked the guy down to 20 Lats--and bought the painting minus the frame. Cheap frame--I tell you! BUT--she saves a lot of money. EVERYONE wants to make a buck there! I don't blame them! The paintings--big or small--were all beautiful!

That's my Sister, Valda, in the front.....
