Where's Art? with Annie Dugan: slow down; you look too fast

Tom McGregor/Facebook

Artists in Grand Marais were, to use Annie Dugan's phrase, "skittering around" over the weekend, creating art outdoors at the Plein Air Festival.

Anyone can snap a photo with their smart phone and keep moving, but what happens when you stay with a view and commit it to canvas?

The Plein Art Grand Marais Art Show will be up at the Johnson Heritage Post Art Gallery through October 7.

And although art is indeed part of this year's Femn Fest, there are some great offerings in the workshop portion of things, including a session on Intersectional Design and how design draws us in - or puts us off - and Jillian Dollar's Be an Art Amazon-Using the Amazon Spirit to Navigate the Fine Art Scene.  More information can be found here.

She also loves introducing the different people she meets in her job to one another, helping to forge new "community connections" and partnerships.Lisa has amassed a book collection weighing over two tons, and she enjoys reading, photography, volunteering with Animal Allies Humane Society and fantasizing about farmland.
