Looking for some great new artwork for your wall? Ely, Minnesota is the place to find what you’re looking for! The city’s Winter Festival<\/a> is officially underway beginning today and running through February 15th.<\/p>\n

Part of the festival includes the Ely ArtWalk<\/a> where artists are encouraged to share their creative talents. Storefronts clear out their windows to make space for these works of art during the festival. Not all, but many of the pieces are for sale.<\/p>\n

I got a sneak peek over the weekend of a young artist’s work. This will be her first time participating in the ArtWalk, and certainly not her last! I was immediately drawn to her sense of style and the meaning behind her pieces. I knew in an instant that I wanted them hanging on my office wall! You can view her artwork in the windows of the Goodwill store 40 N 2nd Avenue East. After the ArtWalk you will need to make an appointment with me, to see them in all of their glory!<\/p>\n

These pieces represent the three stages of Inspiration.<\/p>\n

This year I entered one piece into the ArtWalk. It will somehow be incorporated into the\u00a0 new Raptor Exhibition at the International Wolf Center<\/a> beginning this May. The nine days spent with a Northern Hawk Owl family has been a highlight of my photography career. I chose this owlet, peering out from its nest cavity to be my selection.<\/p>\n

The piece has a custom-made frame by local artist, Barbara Jones. The frame is made up of wood harvested from her property and made to look like an extension of the of the image. You can view this piece in the window of Steger Mukluks<\/a> 33 E. Sheridan Street during the ArtWalk.<\/p>\n

A special thanks to Steve Voiles, Alanna Dore and everyone else who works tirelessly to pull this event together. It’s a winter favorite enjoyed by all!<\/p>\n
