Art




Art is insightful, posing questions and seeking unexpected answers. Art is a refuge, encouraging reflection or just stillness. Art is diverse, offering perspectives beyond our own. Art is educational, examining our world and our histories. Art is inspirational. Looking at art gets us imagining our own next creative venture. Get engaged. Go visit an art gallery.

Who created the lovely wooden piece in the top photo?

Mary Lou Zeek said...

That piece was created by Elizabeth Frank. She finds fallen birch trees, collects them throughout the year and creates her many sculptures.
Last year we had a show for her and if you go to the website and click "past shows" you can see more of her wonderful work.
