Let the Fire in the skylight the fire in your soul, let the beauty all around you inspire you! by Danett Britt- This image has been mistaken, by locals, for a Wildfire that took place in Forest Lake, MN. But instead, is a simple storm cloud developing overhead giving the impression of a Volcanic Eruption.

The Ashininaabek people used the Mother Bear as a landmark and tell the story about how she came to be there. Long ago, along the Wisconsin shoreline, a mother bear and her two cubs were driven into Lake Michigan by a raging forest fire. The bears swam for many hours, but soon the cubs tired. Mother bear reached the shore first and climbed to the top of a high bluff to watch and wait for her cubs. The cubs drowned within sight of the shore. The Great Spirit created two islands to mark the spot where the cubs disappeared and then created a solitary dune to represent the eternal vigil of mother bear.
These images reminded me of the gulf coast just minus the salty ocean air.
I watched as morning fog kissed the landscape, slowly burning off showing Lake Michigan’s beautiful teal-blue waters. While I was exploring Sleeping Bear Dunes, I had the story above playing around in my head; carefully documenting the landscape with both color and infrared cameras.

Photozaic statement:
How can I construct an image that moves beyond the surface? Photozaics, of course!
My award-winning Photozaics are inspired where Van Gogh’s textures meet Ansel Adam’s simplicity near the intersection of Bob Ross’ healing vibes. This technique is a labor-intensive multi-step process and starts out with my journey into nature; recording the landscapes that spark my eye may it be rolling hills or a babbling brook. After modifying the composition, I take the print and head to the stained-glass shop to find matching colors. I cut the glass by hand taking smaller shards, and placing them in a rock tumbler to remove sharp edges while larger pieces are sanded by hand and assembled the frame. Grouting finishes the artwork allowing the detail of each cut glass shape to add texture to my art.
Art heals the mind, body, and soul. Research has shown a correlation between participating in cultural activities, like Crafting, visiting art galleries, and attending concerts have increased rates of good health. By creating Photozaics, it is my hope to connect with you through a multi-sensory mixed media presentation that tickles sight and encourages your touch.

Pine Edged Road
Sometimes the path in life is not clearly defined. The only thing you can do is breathe deeply, put your faith in the universe, and take the first step. Life’s road will have curves, enjoy them as they will bring you to wonderful places if you surrender. Road trips allow my mind to wander and absorb what Mother Nature shows me. I especially love watching the landscape change from mountains to desert; from city to Rolling country farms; brightly colored flowers to drab gray foggy scenes. All of these are gifts from her, so give thanks. Get out in nature and recharge your soul!
In this collection, the works of art are Mixed media; a combination of my loves of photography and mosaics that I call photoziacs. The artwork is available in various sizes, from 16×14 to 30×26 (long edge). These works of art change and exhibitions can be customized to fit the gallery’s space. They sell quickly so this is just an example of what I have to offer.

I found this sign walking along Mississippi River Road in Saint Paul; I found this sign warning me of the appending Danger of the cliff’s edge. This sign defines Covid-19 and Civil unrest and now attacks Women’s right to choose. We are entering dangerous times and need to stand up for all Equality.
I want to personally thank Sue and John Johnson for

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.
I had the privilege of having two very different works of art on Display at Noresman Distillery’s fall Art show during the Month of October 2019.
Bridge to Wonder this is my canvas wrapped infrared photography that is available in various sizesHill alive with color this too is available in various sizes.
