After retirement, Kim Embretson decided to pursue his artistic interests and enrolled in some classes at M State Fergus Falls campus. When classes were canceled in the spring of 2020, he approached me (Stephen) for some virtual critique sessions as he continued to paint. After a few sessions, I suggested it might be fun for both of us to get off the computers and do some sketching in the field - we would be outdoors, and work at a safe social distance from each other. Thus began a summer of fun and fellowship as we explored a variety of locations in and around Evansville.

This exhibit is a result of our time painting together.
