The artist's childhood vacations were Wisconsin road trips. Mixed media on handmade paper.
The countryside of Wisconsin is among the most beautiful I have ever seen. It's rolling hills cast shadows in all directions making for a beauty bordering on spiritual.

Wisconsin State Capitol Building; completed in 1917, the building houses both chambers of the Wisconsin legislature along with the Wisconsin Supreme Court and the Office of the Governor.
These images were made during a journey down Rustic Road 74 in Florence County on June 21, 2017.
Located within the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest, R-74, a gravel route, passes the former Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) Camp Newald which operated from 1933–1942, and crosses the Popple River, a designated Wisconsin “Wild River.”
Wisconsin's Rustic Roads system was created to preserve many of the state's scenic, lightly traveled country roads. Features of Rustic Roads include rugged terrain, native vegetation and wildlife, or open areas with agricultural vistas.

Built in 1964-1965, this International Style Modern office building has surprisingly little information available about it. The building replaced the historic Vilas mansion, home to several notable early and prominent citizens of Madison, and a favorite building of Frank Lloyd Wright. The demolition of the mansion and construction of this building catalyzed the creation of the historic preservation movement in Madison and the state of Wisconsin, as it was massively out of scale with the surrounding buildings and the loss of a historical landmark as significant as the Vilas House made many in the community realize the need to protect the city’s historic resources. The building features a glass curtain wall, seemingly inspired by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, sandwiched between a parapet and floor structure clad in metal panels with a trapezoid geometric motif at the top and bottom, which is seemingly inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright, a recessed first floor with Le Corbusier-inspired pilotis, or exposed columns, around the perimeter of the floor, framing storefronts, and clad in stone panels, a penthouse with an oversized cap, exposed columns, and stone panel cladding, a low-slope roof, and a large lawn to the side and rear, which conceals the building’s underground parking garage. The building, despite being a quite excellent example of mid-20th Century modern architecture, is a noncontributing structure in the Mansion Hill Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997. The building’s architecture seems to have escaped notice by the local architectural historian and history groups despite being a quite well-designed International Style building.
On May 14th, 2016, 509 students were eligible to participate in the Spring Commencement ceremonies. The Spring Commencement included the awarding of bachelor's and master's degrees to UW-Parkside students. Thelma A. Sias was the Commencement speaker, along with speeches from the Chancellor's Award Recipient, Tyler Farrell, and Regent Eve Hall. Congratulations to each individual that graduated today! We are proud of you all!

Kevin drives us back to his apartment after leaving the Safehouse. It was well after midnight and so officially Kevin's birthday. We sang him a round of Happy Birthday, which he said was the best rendition he's ever received.
