2009 Festival of the Arts Regional Competition

Mantra I was accepted into Festival of the Arts Regional Competition. This plein aire painting was completed on location at the top of Sleeping Bear Point one year ago this week! This particular painting venture was orchestrated by friends and fellow painters Richard Kooyman & Melanie Parke. Rounding out the group was Beth Bricker, Margaret Tvedten and myself. Style points go to Margaret who carried a card table to the top of the point. Honestly I think she had no idea we were in for a hike!
