Inspired by Lake Michigan
Reception August 1, 5:30-7:00 p.m.

 

“Along My Garden Path” is a work by by Roycine King.

Many artists in our region can’t help but be influenced by or inspired by the Great Lakes that surround us. The Big Lake exhibit features painting, printmaking, sculpture, and photography by Lee Ann Frame, Ken Foster, Roycine King, Cara O’Brien, Diane Zoellmer, and Shelley Hale. All are artists living in West Michigan, in whose work you may see a direct connection or at the very least see the connection of the power of water wind and sand, of a magnificent force applied through time.
