returning to lake superior

I'm very happy to let you all know about a broadside project I was fortunate to be involved in.  One of my paintings, Disbelief Suspended, was recently selected to accompany Kathryn Kysar's poem, Returning to Lake Superior.  If you live in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area - you may have already seen the broadside posted in your neighborhood.  If so, please let me know - I'd love to hear from you!

from Red Bird Chapbooks:
The Broadside Project is Red Bird Chapbooks' public art, public literature project. Broadsides provide artists and writers another venue for their work, and continued engagement in their respective craft.  Broadsides provide the reading public with access to new and interesting art and writing.

Here's how it works: we pair one visual artist and one writer together for a blind collaboration resulting in the creation of a work of fine art. New broadsides are released at the beginning of every month. As was done traditionally with broadsides, we distribute and display these works in public locations. Find Red Bird Broadsides posted throughout Minnesota's Twin Cities and surrounding area. We also reveal the broadsides here, on Facebook, and provide an introduction to each contributor.

Support this series and its contributors by purchasing your favorite broadsides below.

Broadsides are printed on cover weight archival paper.
Broadsides make inspirational, memorable gifts.
