We live and work in our home, studio, and shop in the
northwoods of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Our art, our work, our lives, and our
play interweave and blend to such a degree that it is often hard to
tell where one ends and the other begins, which is how we like it to
be.
Having two artists in the same household has its advantages,
and challenges. Though we share much, we work separately at our art and seldom
collaborate. Working as closely as we do does allow us to offer each other
support and encouragement when needed.
Our interest in a sustainable lifestyle and world permeates
our life and work. The sun provides our electricity, the wind pumps our water,
the woods and the sun heat our home and cook our food. We strive to live a
non-disposable life. And we draw inspiration and energy from our lives and
everything around us, something that I think is reflected in our art.
Our website allows us to share our artwork with more people
without spending so much time and energy on the road.
Although being able to see
and feel our work in person would certainly be preferable, this alternative for
selling and sharing means more time for us in the shop and studio which we are
coming more and more to appreciate. Our ideas and inspirations far outweigh the
hours in the day! Though we miss the face to face contact with those who buy our
work, this option is working well for us. We still like to talk with our
customers, however, so do contact us with any questions or comments you may
have.
