48708

This book is about an artist living in zip code: 48708. That is Bay City, Michigan. IT is an alright place to live but not so much for an artist. The area is not devoid of art. There is a great gallery here: C.A.T. WORK Art Gallery, 514 Washington, Bay City, Michigan, 48708, 989, 893-2771, Ext. #6. This gallery is attached to Larson Salvage, a business well known in the area. Tom Larson owns both businesses. A great advocate for art in Bay City, MI Hard to believe a gallery of great modern art exists in this area Tom has about 100 pieces of my artwork on display as well a his own, his daughter Amelia, his son, Carl as well as other local artists including other local artists such a Rich Long, a personal and artistic friend. Come to the gallery if you are ever in Bay City, Michigan Also in the book are black and white photographs of the local area: buildings and landscapes as well as images of my artwork. I chose to make the book in a graphic novel format with black and white pages between them. . I love black and white photographs I also love color but for this project black and white was appropriate because I wanted the book to make the book a combination of both. Thanks for looking: Patrick B. Humphreys
