Picture I took at Lake Michigan.
I enjoyed the opportunity to spend some time Up North this weekend because I was invited to attend the Michigan Legacy Art Park's Gala at Crystal Mountain. I have been to the park many times and enjoyed the dinner that honored those who have helped make it such a great showcase for sculpture and nature.
On a day of exploring other areas around Northern Michigan, I went to Northport and at the rocky shore of the beach were towers of balanced rocks. This reminded me of Andy Goldsworthy at first, but then I knew I had seen another artist who specifically worked with balancing rocks. John Felice Ceprano is an American born artist who creates the rock sculptures in the video below while living in Ottawa, Canada. There is even an International Festival for this type of art making. So, the next time you are at the beach, try it out (it is a little tricky, but pretty fun)!
