Over this Labor Day weekend I had the pleasure of traveling to Royal Oak, MI to explore a great festival called Arts Beats and Eats. This festival combines my favorite things - art, music, and food! The thing that shocked me most about this festival was how crowded it was. It wasn't just crowded at the stages or the food vendors - but people packed down the blocks to look at all the artist tents. It was amazing, inspirational, creative, and powerful. I happily paid 3.oo to enter, and then 10.oo for 16 food tickets. I wandered up and down the side streets looking at art work, eating smoked pulled pork bbq, and jamming to music filtering through the crowd.
Out of all the booths I saw filled with amazing jewelry, word workings, metal sculptures, photography, leather work - Darryl Norem stood out for me. Her work is both tactile, whimsical, bold, and soft at the same time. Pictures I have posted here are from her
website. Unfortunately these pictures do not give the depth of these pictures much of these are layered and give wonderful visual texture.
I sense a layered landscape lesson being inspired by these works!
Enjoy.
