Today was the last day of my split personality painter|photographer. I participated all week in the Cedarburg plein air competition. I am sure the results will be uneventful, seeing what other painters were accomplishing, but it was a good diversion. Painting is a bit like riding a bike, you never forget, but boy was my bike RUSTY. These were my two entries.

If only the frog sounds could be heard as you view this. They were all happy to have more rain than we need.

Painted today, dodging raindrops, trying to see clearly in fog, and with a chill off the river, yet it was fun. I am never satisfied with my work but I like the process.
This theater has been calling me all week while I am in Cedarburg painting, Art Deco architecture always reminds me of Edward Hopper, especially his painting of the blonde leaning against the wall in a theater like this.

Watertown Wedding Photographers | Kim & Jake

Kim and Jake were married yesterday in Watertown, it was a fabulous day for a wedding! Surrounded by friends and family as their support system, Jake and Kim finally jumped that broom. Their good times are NOT over, as you can see they have just begun. The Flower Box of Watertown did the floral arrangements, the disk jockey Luke Will "Exclusive Sounds", provided great dance music, at the reception in Turner Hall.

The dance has just begun for this couple, and it will be a great one! Congratulations from Artists' Eyes Photography. "may the music never stop"

See a slide show of the days events here.

Why is it when you have good intentions and wonderful plans mother nature rears her ugly head?
Kayaking is out, plan B, brunch and a movie. Why oh why did it have to rain?

Yesterday was a glorious day for a wedding. While our HUGE wedding party whooped it up in a local saloon, I ventured outside to find my photo of the day. Watch this blog for the wedding activities, they were some wild and crazy kids, we had a good time with all of them.
