![]() Feeding the sturgeon |
I recently began volunteering at the Great Lakes Aquarium in Duluth, MN. I prepare meals for the fish - then dive in the 3 large tanks (Isle Royale exhibit). While in the tanks, I feed the fish & help clean the inside of tanks. Great Lakes Aquarium's 85,000-gallon Isle Royale exhibit contains fish that you would find swimming in the deeper waters of Lake Superior near Isle Royale. The tank is divided into 3 sections and forms the center exhibit of the Aquarium. |

"I look for an artist creating unique thought-provoking artwork. The media doesn't matter; how well it will sell doesn't matter. The artwork must feel ripe and ready to pick. The experience is what is important. A quality exhibition of a body of work will allow the artist to move on. Without an exhibition a artist can remain in a holding pattern, never experiencing the pressures of public and critical viewing. An exhibit, like a mirror, gives the artist a chance to look at who they are from three feet away." -Christopherson |

| Artist Residency - 2004 | Limassol Cyprus: | |||
![]() Margo's studio in Cyprus 2004 Diving on the Zenobia wreck inspired these 2 paintings. |
Margo spent the summer of 2004 living in Cyprus with her 6 year old son. They lived in an art school that was set up like a youth hostel.... except not as nice. It took the whole first week in the country just to locate the art supplies, but the studio space was great - with tall ceilings an lots of natural light. In-between painting, Margo was able to spend many days diving. The water in this part of the Mediterranean is extremely clear. Unfortunately they have severely over-fished, so there is not a huge amount of underwater life, although there are still octopus to be found. Margo's main interest in diving in Cyprus was to visit the Zenobia Wreck. This amazing wreck became the focus of her diving and of her paintings. | ![]() ![]() ![]() |
