Today there’s lots of avant-garde things happening around the world, and some of them are being created from right here in the beautiful Great Lakes region. Evidence-based is a new avant-garde way of designing. Architects, interior designers, and even artists like me are using credible medical studies to guide and influence our designs.

Hello everyone!

I get to create in such a magical area surrounded by so many magical people. As many of you know, I like to donate my art, especially to health organizations. I recently donated two paintings to an online auction held by the Mackinac Straits Health Foundation in lovely St. Ignace, Michigan. What a beautiful area! What great people! I got to meet Kimberly North and Director Mike Grisdale. I was told this painting found a home on beautiful Mackinac Island. Did you know cars are not allowed on the island? Other than emergency vehicles and electric wheelchairs, how do people get around? Walking! Biking! Horse and carriage! So amazing! If you’ve never visited the Great Lakes, you’ve got to plan a trip!
