OMGosh!!! One of three pieces I entered in White Bear Center for the Arts "Northern Lights" show received an award.

I already felt a win when all three of the pieces I submitted were chosen to be included in the exhibit.

White Bear Center for the Arts in St. Paul, MN is a thriving art center that has captivated the local population. Offering a long and ever expanding list of classes, talks, and exhibits, White Bear Center for the Arts has found how to be relevant in the lives of the folks that live in and around the area.

650 pieces were submitted for consideration for the "Northern Lights" show, three judges whittled the total down to 100. Of that 100, all three of my pieces were selected for inclusion. That was a win for me.

Learning one of my three pieces won an award put me over the moon.

    Love:
    looking at art,
    talking about art,
    making art,
    writing about art,
    hearing about art.


    I am so very fortunate to have a dear friend who is a rabid lover of art like me.

    During the cold winter months, we travel every other week in search of art.

    There are art shows everywhere if you look - and we do.

    Every local library has an art show, most towns have small art centers or at least one art gallery.

    A small college?
    You are most likely in luck, there will be a small gallery showcasing an artist's or a group of artist's labors of love and passion.

    Many local restaurants and coffee shops regularly hang the work of local artists.

    All you need to do is be on the lookout.

    You will be richly rewarded by spending some time inside an artist's vision or view of the world.


    We dig around online to find shows somewhere within 100 miles of where we both live - we live 38 miles from each other.

    After some back and forth, make our decision and point our cars at our destination.


    We have yet to be disappointed.

    Mostly we come away from our bi-weekly adventures filled with awe and profound gratitude that we are able to have these experiences.
