Nature Inspires Art
Release Date:
In this episode of Inside, Out & About we explore the confluence of nature and art with acclaimed artist Ben Miller and Friends of the Chicago River Executive Director Margaret Frisbie. Miller works in a unique painting style with a rod and reel in a process he calls "fly cast painting." In the spring of 2022 Friends of the Chicago River hosted Miller at our McCormick Bridgehouse and Chicago River Museum, located on Chicago's iconic Riverwalk, where Miller toiled for hours angling his line toward a Plexiglas canvas some 20 feet away to create a stunning portrait of the Chicago River.
