Exhibition Date – December 9, 2021 – January 2, 2022
Reception Date December 9th – 6 pm
It was a well-visited exhibition. We had over 200 people during our artist reception and over the course of the month, we saw 273 people during regular business hours. With covid keeping people home, this was a great showing I think. We featured the work on our Instagram stories and posts, and those posts received collectively around 1k views.
the image I have is Wishes or Weeds matted in black with a simple black frame
11×14 print matted to 16×20 frame
Artwork statement
This image reminded me of my childhood and every time I saw a Goatsbeard, I would pick it and make a wish. So, in this image, I see wishes and choose to hold on to my innocent belief that they are not weeds but wishes delivered to the Universe via a simple breeze. So next time you see a Dandelion, stop, pick the weed, and make your wish! Only true believers will see their wishes materialize!
I create multi-sensory wall art that engages your curiosity of what lies beyond; what you see is personal to you. Creating art helps me connect with you, exhibiting my ability to make you feel like you are there with me. They inspire your desire to touch my art, making you try to view it and feel it at the same time. My surroundings play a big role in my photography story. When I am out in nature with my camera, it’s through texture, lines, colors, etc., that I get my inspiration. I primarily use color images to capture the vibrancy of Mother Nature’s glory, but when the mood and setting are just right, I photograph in infrared. This style of photography brings another worldly look, almost a dreamlike state that has a 3D effect.
Come on out and see what new works of art I have and along with that I’m selling infrared matted prints and offering them in simple elegant black frames, and photo cards. These items make great gifts for the upcoming holiday season.

Short Bio – Artist statement: Protest due to recent laws passing in Texas
Replacement artwork titled: Empty frame formally known as “Bridge to Wonder”
The image you see before you is an empty frame instead of “Bridge to Wonder,” an image that captures my soul and the way I see life to be; as a female artist, I cannot with goodwill send my art to a state that doesn’t recognize women as equals or allow them control over their own bodies. I choose to stand in Solidarity with the women of Texas and other states.
Empty Frame formally known as Bridge To Wonder replaced the image that was supposed to be in this exhibition.
Empty frame is priced at $10,000.00 and all money I make on this frame or exhibition will be donated to The Lilith Fund. Link Below:

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.
Lake Superior has roughly 200 rivers feeding this vast body of water and for me it’s an artist paradise. Here are just a few images that I have taken over the years from my hiking trips.
All my images are for sale. Matted prints in various sizes and Photozaic frames! If interested please email me at nmcguirestudio@gmail.com.
