Location: Hastings Minnesota area
Back road summer series continues, this weekend I drove around the Hastings Minnesota area capturing the agricultural landscapes. The landscapes offered up simple calming views of the countryside lifestyle. Crops were flourishing while we are experiencing a moderate drought, at least in the areas I was exploring.

Apparently, It’s not cool to name and play with your food before you eat it! Meet Jaws and Pinchy, they were delicious. Living in the Midwest I don’t get the opportunity to shuck lobsters so when asked to help, I jumped right in. It was a thank-you dinner for Art to Change the World patrons who contributed $500 or more. I had a blast photographing and talking with patrons of this non-profit.
Enjoy some of the images I captured while at the event.
Exhibition: August 5 – 28, 2021

I discovered these weathered floorboards at the old Hamm’s Brewery in Saint Paul as I walked the grounds and explored the exterior of the building. It was exciting to see the contrast of the lines, texture, and contrast in this photo.

This sign defines Covid-19 and Civil unrest in 2020. I managed to capture this image walking along Mississippi River Road in Saint Paul; I found this sign warning me of the appending Danger of the cliff’s edge. I think this sign needs to heed its warning.
This is the start of my work in progress video for Rainy Lake Calm – photozaic sized small
Story of image:
On the first day of my trip to Rainy Lake, I was heading to a Surf and turf party with other Rainy Lakers. I was able to explore the island and see what captured my interest. I could tell that the sunset was going to be great, so I decided to sit on the floating dock and set up the equipment just waiting for the sun to set.
Since joining Art to change the world (ACW) I’ve been blessed to collaborate alongside artists, business owners, educators, and elected officials on the ADP Project (Arts District Palette)- where Artists and neighbors mix.
Clay squared to infinity studio was the location where a great group of volunteers bagged all the goodies that were donated by local establishments.
The Huxely is the location where we dropped off the goodie bags for new tenants moving in to develop relationships in the NE Arts District Community.https://www.minneapolismn.gov/government/city-council/ward-1/
