I'd like to thank...
the actors Dan Welsh, Ellen Knolls, Kelly Brown, Charlie Sloin, Brant Jones, John Dranschak, Louie Cowan, Laura Dachenbach, and Steve Schlather. I would also like to thank Josef Matulich for sharing his work with us. There is also the extensive amount of time John Dranschak put into casting for this meeting. We wouldn't be able to have done this meeting without you. Finally, last but not least, I'd also like to thank the dedicated Megan Burkeholder for being a great video cherub and Josef's wife for ensuring that we all ate very well during the meeting. Have a great holidays. We will be taking time off to be with family and friends through the first of the year and look forward to seeing you in January. Stay inspired and keep writing.

Screenwriter Ian Carlyle receives an offer that could catapult his stalled career when he's tapped to create the next project for one of Hollywood's fastest-rising stars. Research for the film — a docudrama about the Edmund Fitzgerald — brings Ian home to Marquette, Michigan, and into familiar waters: Ian's father, a former crew member on the Fitz, died mysteriously on the same lake. As he explores the Lake Superior tragedy that claimed twenty-nine men, Ian is forced to confront the wreckage of his own past and decide what his legacy truly is.

CREATING COMPLETENESS
CREATING: to cause to come into being
COMPLETENESS: wholeness, integrity, circularity
New Encaustics by
Megan Burkholder
Exhibition: November 1-28th, 2010
Clayspace/Gallery 831
831 South Front Street, Brewery District
gallery hours T-F 3-9, Sat & Sun 1-6
Reception: November 12th, 6-9 pm
with live music by national acclaimed singer/songwriter Lydia Brownfield
CREATING COMPLETENESS is a series of encaustic wax works of art inspired by the uniquely human desire for self-awareness and completeness. Through stream-of-consciousness painting, Burkholder elicits a subconscious repeated pattern of abstract circles. In belief systems, the circle symbolizes completion; the embodiment of spiritual energy; eternity; a mirror in which everything is contained and revealed.
