Spring Series


As spring as finally sprung in Milwaukee, I feel the need to start
a new series of spring flowers.
How I would love to imitate this little butterfly and just fly away
to a far off place.

I plan on having these prints on display at the Milwaukee Art Museum
Artist Marketplace on July 25th.
Hope to see you there.

YPS Showcase

Along with Peter Skiba, Paul Moertl and P.J. Boylan, I erected the display of 75 photo prints created by Milwaukee area High School students.
This is called the Youth Photography Showcase.
This year for the 15th time High School students competed and have been honored in this photo competition sponsored by the Wisconsin Chapter of the Photographic Society of America.

5 area High Schools participated in the 2009 version of the Youth Photography Showcase.
Rufus King High School, Marquette University High School, Downtown Institute of Arts and Letters, Pulaski High School and Milwaukee High School of the Arts.

15 of these students will be given certificates for their accomplishments and cash prizes for their exceptional work on Wednesday April 22, 2009.
Award ceremony will begin at 5PM. Students and parents along with educators are invited to be present.
Common Council President Willie Hines will welcome the students and visitors to City Hall.
Recognition from Mayor Tom Barrett will be provided as well.

Pictures are currently on display in the City Hall Rotunda until Friday May 1, 2009.

Please stop by and see the fine work of our young Milwaukee students.

CoPA's Exhibition last evening was a huge success.
The place was packed.
Thanks to those who stopped down.
It was great chatting with other art lovers.

If you missed it last nite as there were so many
places to choose from, the good news is that it will be open
again today from 11AM to 9PM and Sunday noon to 5PM.
