The Seasons in Michigan do change we keep telling ourselves
after a very long and hot summer that we thought would never end. Color is in
the trees. For those of us who enjoy the seasons, this is a glorious time of year
and can inspire us to really see the beauty all around us. All regions of this
beautiful blue planet have their own special times for us to take in the beauty
and be nourished and blessed making our lives richer.
For me this seasonal display excites and invigorates the
passion to interpret this glorious time, yes my palate overflows with yellows
and reds and waning green into brown. The local weather reporters add to the
interest by showing us the daily color changes and the best time to see the
peak color show.
If you are on one of those beautiful seasonal tours in
Michigan, stop in to some of the magnificent art venues and see how artists are
inspired by the profusion of autumn colors. All paintings in this blog are from
the Joel F. Ellis art inventory.
Enjoy our special planetary gift,
Joel

P.S. If you are in
Lansing Michigan this autumn, be sure to check the Michigan Economic
Development Commission (MEDC) corridor for a dozen touchable paintings by Joel
F. Ellis. We are happy to announce that the show has been extended until the
end of the year.
Where is the MEDC you
ask? – while you are in Lansing Michigan, enjoying the many venues in art and sundries on the
Washington Ave. walking mall, walk north toward Lansing Community College. MEDC,
300 N. Washington is on the east side of the street, home to Pure Michigan
offices, just walk in 9 to 5 weekdays free to view the live paintings of Joel’s beloved Lake
Michigan dunes.
