     K. Marita Walizer is known as "The Derby Hat Artist" in her beloved hometown of Louisville, Kentucky. She has watched every Kentucky Derby since 1964, and can recite every winner since then. She also knew and played with Secretariat and saw many famous champions. In 2011, she became an official Kentucky Derby artist, when she won the first Grand Prize national contest to have her painting "Derby Cheers" pictured on every official  mint julep bottle served at Churchill Downs for the Kentucky Derby. She is an excellent judge of horses, mentored by track vet Dr. Lawrence Scanlan, and Mae Condon, ASHA.

Limited Edition Chef Prints

     These chef prints are a great gift and joy to add to any food lovers kitchen. Some are chefs working at Commander's Palace in New Orleans. You can buy them unmatted for $10.00 and frame them yourself. I have a few left that are double matted in Baltic blue, Moss or Evergreen for $25.00. They can be matted so the outside edge is a standard 8"x10" or 11"x14". You can find frames in those sizes everywhere, so no custom framing is needed!
