Our final stop for the day was Melrose Plantation Our final stop for the day was Melrose Plantation for tours of the big house, Africa House and Yucca. Amazing stories of labor and love with the centerpiece being the folk art of Clementine Hunter. Melrose was used as an artist’s colony or retreat in the middle part of the 20th Century and Clementine, a brilliant plantation worker, was able to paint her portrayals of life around her with the discarded art materials/paints from the visiting artists. An extraordinary seated dinner of creole cuisine followed the tours. A good time was had by all! 🌱
