Step into Adventure

Walk the Shore.

Share the waves with the stars.

Find the perfect rock that will remind you of this adventure long after it's over. 

Navigating the rocky shores of Lake Michigan with a red head lamp at night is an adventure all its own.

Once settled on the rocks with my camera level on the tripod, it’s time to stop and take in the night. Stars, breeze, lapping waves, lights from boats, a light house and distant homes, shadows of the trees that look silhouetted even before I take any photos… 

Then we open our minds to the family day we’ve just had walking the shores of Lake Michigan, stopping at different beaches to experience the trip up north, watching the sunset over the water in Charlevoix, before ending it with this beautiful night under the stars. Calming therapy from the universe fills our minds from the stars above and the noises from the water. Our minds relax and reflect on the joyous adventure of our summer trip. 

Gaze into the night sky and listen to the sounds of the world you don’t normally have time for during busy days.

This image will always be full of meaning for me because

this was my first time photographing the Milky Way in a truly dark sky location.

There is a person down the shore with a red light that gives the air of a midnight fire. It brings a sense of coziness to the image.

A 16×20 inch photo print showing the Milky Way above a the rocky shore of Lake Michigan. The water is moving, and the pine trees stand tall on the other side of the rocky beach. The night sky is colorful; there is air glow in green and magenta streaks across the sky. The Milky Way core is just behind the trees, but the Dark Horse is strong in the super starry sky.

Printed on archival metallic paper, this print will last many years.

It will come titled and signed by me, with a story about the image.

This print will be ready to be matted in a standard 20×24 inch mat cut for a 16×20 picture, inserted in a 20×24 inch picture frame, and hung on your wall. Or simply framed as is in a 16×20 inch frame. Go with what feels right to you. Just know that whatever you decide, the framing job will be simplified due to the standard sizing of the art.

    • No tax, even in Ohio. I am obligated to charge, track, and pay sales use tax on my items to people in Ohio (where I live). August 1-14 happens to be this year’s tax-free holiday. So for the duration of this sale, there will be no tax on my items, even if you live in Ohio.

  • I named this collection Step into Adventure because it really explores the type of fun we like to have on summer vacations shared with our families.

    This art can stir up feelings of epic road trip adventures to once in a lifetime places. Even though none of these images are actually of iconic places, they can instill the same feelings when we let the art speak to our minds, souls, and memories.

    Step into adventure can remind you that the regular places you maybe visit(ed) every year are just as important as those once in a lifetime places, as they leave a lasting legacy for your family.

    I want to thank you from the bottom of my Artsy Fartsy heart for being here, and stepping into my adventure!
