Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after. ~Henry David Thoreau
Watched these two for awhile fishing Rice’s Point yesterday as the sun was setting…
Ms. Lizzy came over for an evening of art and a movie in the studio with me. It was completely delightful. I remember at her age taking art lessons at the Duluth Art Institute. My mother, from a very artful family herself, encouraged me to develop a love and appreciation for art early. It’s wonderful seeing my sister do the same with her kids.
Caught my son Josh for this shot a few weeks back preparing for last Friday night’s “Plys With Purpose” event presented by Prøve Gallery and the Gary New Duluth Community Center and Recreation Area. At the event, 30 constructed skateboard decks by local, national, and international artists were exhibited and auctioned off with proceeds to benefit the Gary New Duluth Skatepark Fund. The Prøve Gallery also premiered two skateboard films that night, including “ISM” by local filmmakers, Mike Rapaich & Stephen Pestalozzi in which Josh is also featured as one of the skaters. The filming and editing are fantastic… proof, once again, that Duluth, MN is really a hot spot for the arts in all forms.
So many brides getting ready for their weddings this summer ~
Made me think of this portrait of my lovely niece Anna getting ready on her wedding day.
It sure was a beautiful night to couple up on the shores of Lake Superior. Canal Park, Duluth, MN.
The birthday girl and her dream bike. Straight from the House of Chaos, my niece Lizzy, all smiles. Ahh… to be six, again. Happy Easter, Everyone.
Completing the final CPI, or Clinical Performance Instrument, for my student intern. A long process.
