Featuring work by Allen Hughes, M.D., Jane Hughes Coble, and Anne Hughes Sayle.

“The Hughes Art Show has returned for another showing at the Memphis Botanic Garden—the three Memphis-native siblings – Dr. Allen Hughes, Anne Hughes Sayle, and Jane Hughes Coble.
Dr. Hughes is a nationally awarded wildlife painter and carver, has had his work on the cover of or in over 40 publications, and almost all of his over fifty limited edition prints have sold out. He is the only artist ever to win top honors at the National Wildlife Show in both painting and carving at the same time – and he has done it twice.
Anne Hughes Sayle is an oil painter, watercolorist, ceramicist, and fabric artist.  She has created large liturgical wall hangings for churches in Mississippi and Arkansas and for the Hutchison School Chapel. She has won the Memphis Arts in the Parks competition, does portraits, other commissions, and teaches.
Jane Hughes Coble has had numerous individual and group shows, had her first major drawing published in a magazine, and was juried Into the Best and Brightest Art Show in Scottsdale, AZ.  She co-founded the Harding Academy Art Show in Nashville in 1975, being the first Art Chairman to invite outside artists to participate, and this show is widely considered the original model for all the similar shows now seen in so many schools, churches, etc.”
