Artist Elizabeth G Fagan creates images representative of the Great Lakes region of North America. The four seasons, the landscape, and the Lake Michigan shoreline are her frequent subjects. Fagan is a life-long animal lover who aims to spread compassion for other creatures on planet Earth. Her work features portraits of animals and birds of the region. “I call my work ”Eclectic 21st-Century,'” says Fagan.
Art by Season
The Great Lakes region of North America enjoys four distinct seasons. Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter bring changes to the natural world, not only in average temperature, but also in animals and plants, the Great Lakes, and the sky above.
“The climate here is more moderate than it is to the west and north,” says artist Elizabeth G Fagan. Tucked between lake bluffs on the west and Lake Michigan on the east, Lake Michigan’s Left Coast sees temperatures that are cooler in Summer and warmer in Winter. “It’s more of a Maritime climate,” says Fagan.
