Money's Folk Art

    We have launched this website to show- case a variety of our art pieces.    

   We want to offer an opportunity to our valued customers to purchase our items directly from our shop. 

    We design each piece, then Lonnie carves it from wood or sculpts it from gourds  and Twyla hand paints it.  Each piece is signed by both of us.

Lonnie & Twyla Money

                                About the Moneys

         Lonnie and Twyla Money were both born in Laurel County, Kentucky.  Lonnie is descended from Jacob Money, a 19th Century Swiss immigrant who had been a wood carver in the old country.  Twyla Darty, whose family has farmed in the county for generations, grew up a mile from the house and hilly farm where she and Lonnie live now on Money Road.
