October 2,2011




Dave and I went out for breakfast for our 29th anniversary in Grand Rapids and then headed down to Art Prize. What a variety of different art projects that people have submitted. This artist is Kimber Thompson from Marshall Michigan and the piece is titled "America", her tribute to 9-11. And while the center is a couple of children running down a sand dune to what is most likely Lake Michigan on both sides the artist has captured both things and people that define what USA means to her. There was Martin Luther King, Nixon, Bozo the clown, the Mad magazine cover guy, Lucille Ball, the twin towers in smoke, the White House you could stand there for hours looking for all the items as she had them listed on a poster to the side of the entry.
