Last art show of the fall season for me at Reeths Puffer High School 10/4 from 10-3 – 1545 Roberts Road

Reeths Puffer Art and Craft Show tomorrow

It has been a fun first summer/fall selling my photography.  Tomorrow is my last show of the fall season at Reeths Puffer High School  in Muskegon.  I have quite a few new photos, including a collection of night photography.  I’m also introducing photo tiles… we’ll see how that goes.  As usual, I’ll have my matted photos, note cards, and a few framed photos.  The image included with this post is a night photo of jetties on the beach at night….the same night that I was shooting star trails on the beach. This has been great fun, glad I did it when I did because the weather has turned.

My sister, Karen, will also be there with her beautiful stone/beach glass /drift wood mirrors and candles.

Hope to see you there and thanks for the business!  If I miss you, you can contact me through e-mail at mary@atenphoto.com.

Muskegon Farmers Market – Tuesday and Thursday Mornings

Fox photography

I’ll be selling my photography Tuesday and Thursday mornings at the Muskegon Farmers Market through mid-October.

I’ll have matted prints and a canvas print or two at the farmers market.  All prints can be ordered in different sizes of prints and canvas.  I’ll also have note cards that are all printed and cut by hand.  I will usually also have a few of my sister’s picture frames that are made from Great Lakes stones, beach glass, and drift wood.

It has been fun meeting people at the market.

The featured image for this post is a fox that seems to get a lot of attention from the farmer’s market customers.

Thanks to all who have stopped by for looking at my work and for the great feedback!

At Muskegon Farmer’s Market most Tuesdays and Thursday mornings through early September

I will be at the Muskegon Farmer’s Market most Tuesdays and Thursday mornings through early September selling my photos and note cards.

We survived the local art fairs over the last two weekends.  My husband, Dennis, perfected the final touches on the tent.

The Muskegon farmer’s market is more relaxed and more fun.  It felt wonderful to spend the day doing what I love yesterday, making new images!

Hope to see you at the Muskegon Farmer’s Market or contact me at mary@atenphoto.com or 734-718-2311.  I have matted prints, framed prints, and images printed on canvas.
