I would like to thank all the guests that stopped in to visit my art studio this past weekend.  I deeply enjoyed talking to everyone of my guests and look forward to greeting you again next year during the 2018 Northwoods Art Tour!

A special thank you to everyone that assisted me this past weekend with setting up flags to servicing the studio guests with the items they’ve purchased, so I could demonstrate the art of printmaking!  Please understand that I couldn’t  participate in this event without your assistance!  You are wonderful! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I got the Snack Time Blue’s!

Filed under: Fine Art, iMAGiNETHAT! Art Studio, Munsey and Boda, Wildwood Park and Zoo — Leave a comment

This 605 lbs. Kodiak cub loves his snack time!  Munsey always eats his meals and snacks as slowly as he possibly can do so, enjoying every morsel he of food during  meal and snack time!

It can take Munsey up to 30 minutes to eat his breakfast, while Boda almost inhales every meal and he isn’t a happy camper when he has to watch Munsey  slowly eating his meal .

These little piggies didn’t go to the market!

These little piggies don’t go to the market, the market food is delivered to them twice a day!  The more important news is that this paw belongs to a  32 month old,  Kodiak bear cub named Munsey ! As of Monday, October 2nd, 2017 Munsey weight is 605 pounds.  For breakfast each cub eats about 5 lbs. of raw meat , a large pail of fresh fruits and veggies and 16 cups of bear chow.

Boda’s paws are a  larger than Munsey’s because Boda’s weight is 720 lbs.

While most zoo guest’s think Munsey is the underdog in this relationship, the truth is these two bears are equally matched in the art of wrestling!  Munsey has a greater advantage to out maneuver Boda because of Boda’s larger bone structure and over all bulky body mass.

Boda defiantly missed his dance partner (brother Munsey)!  These two enjoy wrestling around the Bear Woods at the Marshfield Wildwood Zoo as documented on the morning of Tuesday October 3rd.

One of the best time of day to watch Munsey and Boda play together is in the morning between 9:30 am to 11:00 am.

Turning Point (Dance)

Ribbon Dance

My parents were Ball Room dancers, my father was trained as an instructor of Ball Room Dancing, so of course I’m in love with the art dance!

In honor of my parents and my daughter (also a dance performer), I’ve created a selection of etchings and collages that celebrate the art of dance!

Bear with me

Over the past two years I’ve been documenting two majestic Kodiak bear cubs rescued from Kodiak Island in Alaska.  They’ve been such an inspiration to me that I’ve included the cubs in my blogs and have written books about their growth and development.

iMAGiNETHAT Art Studio (Leap of Faith)

Filed under: collage, Fine Art, greeting cards, iMAGiNETHAT! Art Studio, mixed media, NORTHWOODS ART TOUR, printmaking — Leave a comment
October 1, 2017

Artwork is a reflection of the artists life experiences and my creations are no exception to this rule.

The  Leap Of Faith series was created because of my daughters devotion to children with autism. artDSC_0080 8x10

Through my own personal experiences, any person and their family members living with a loved one with physical or learning differences has taken a leap of faith in order to achieve their goals. This is the inspiration behind my series titled Leap of Faith!   Leap of Faith is a collection of collages created from a selection of altered original prints and paintings that have been torn, cut and paper punched into a new creation.
