ARTPRIZE!! Grand Rapids, MI

The city is buzzing with excitement for this year's ArtPrize, which opened last night and runs until October 10th. Artwork floods the streets, parks, rivers, and every building in the downtown area. It is definitely something to experience.

Please visit West Michigan Center for Arts and Technology to see my ArtPrize photograph!

"Hou La" means New Day in Hawaiian. This photo was taken on Maui, in true journalistic style.

The piece explores independence, strength, femininity, and the idea of starting over.

"Big Pond"- Peterson Family

Oscoda, Michigan. Blue water, peaceful and calm. I visited my pals from Hawaii and met their beautiful boys! Compared to the Pacific, Thomas thought Lake Huron was a "big pond."
Lazy strolls and campfires on the beach. Here are some samples. I couldn't get enough of these kiddies!

Super excited to see my friends from Hawaii! Road trip to Oscoda, MI.Nicki and David let me paint their car for an art project. Also, Nicki was painted- and I mean everywhere. Who would do that? I make some really good friends.

The project was in response to the abandoned cars on the island. A group of artists created a traveling show. These are the "nice" samples from my grouping, "Beauty in the Breakdown."
