Weatherman Visits Ethereal Visions of the Flint Hills Opening

We had a surprise visit from WIBW weatherman Jeremy Goodwin at First Friday Art Walk which was the opening of Ethereal Visions of the Flint Hills - featuring new works by artist Michael Duane.

Fascinated with the weather, Michael Duane's inspiration is palpable as he recalls seeing his first Kansas tornado at the age of seven. Michael admits that since that day, he has been spellbound by the natural forces of sky and earth. Passionate about his subject matter, Michael believes his art is ever evolving, like the weather. He invites us to experience the allure of storm chasing through his paintings. 

Michael says, “I want to capture that same “wow” factor in my paintings that I first felt as a child, …and show the awesome power and beauty of Mother Nature.”

Here are a couple of videos at April's First Friday Art Walk from WIBW News with weatherman Jeremy Goodwin. Left is of the live unveiling of "Flint Hills Near and Far #3" by Michael Duane. Right is the feature that ran on the 10 o'clock news, where Michael discusses his inspiration.
