I moved to Milwaukee to study the collection at the Milwaukee Art Museum. I lived across the street from the building for seven months. I spent almost every day there learning as much as I could about their collection in the short time that I had. It was not a vacation, and money was tight, but I feel I left with a good memory of the collection at MAM.
Studio #4 was in the second bedroom of the two bedroom apartment I rented across from MAM. I painted four complete works there. I have no photos of the actual studios, so just enjoy some pics of what I created while I was there.

Studio #5 was in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. I had completed my study of The Milwaukee Art Museum, so I needed a change and I did not want to return to Minneapolis just yet. I moved there for personal reasons that did not work out, so I promptly moved back to Minneapolis after just 5 months.
Alas I have no pictures of the studio, it was gorgeous. I created some good work in Florida, as living there changed me artistically and set me on the direction that still I find myself going.
