A discovery

It took me all summer to realize that this photograph, that hangs in our local supermarket, is the basis of the painting  for Art Prize.  It was taken in the 30's, 40 years before Mr Olendorf painted the original from it.

A couple of new works

I was asked to decorate a door panel for a close friend and produced the cherry blossoms above.  The second painting is of a friend's backyard pond in neighboring Fennville.

Art Prize Opens

The installation was officially unveiled at a cocktail reception last night. It is so large I had to photograph it from an angle. Now we wait for the public's opinion.

Art Prize Continued

Yesterday,I helped with the installation of the completed piece,or at least a part of it because of another appointment. This picture shows about one quarter of the finished painting.  My part is the blue shack to the left.  More to come
