The Einstein Project: Anonymous

This must have been a butterfly that was auctioned from a past season of the Einstein Project. It's currently on a private dock somewhere along the Fox River Trail. It looks a little weathered but still caught my eye right away. I could not figure out the real name of this butterfly, so I called it Anonymous.

The Einstein Project: Summer Breeze, A Few Moments Later

A few moments after the first look I got this snap as a boat was passing by and the flag atop the Bellin Building flapping nicely in the then summer breeze.

The Einstein Project: Summer Breeze

This piece of the Einstein Project is also along the west side of the Fox River near downtown of Green Bay. This piece of art is called Summer Breeze, the artist is Jeff Benson and the sponsor is Robinson Metal, Inc. This was one of my favorites of the butterflies and once again, thanks to all involved.

The Einstein Project: Spurs the Turtle

Here is a head on look at Spurs. Look at the detail on his face and legs ... impressive. Spurs was created by Lynda Secor and sponsored by Bank Mutual. Thanks to all involved for the effort.

The Einstein Project: Spurs the Turtle

Another of the turtles from the Einstein Project. Based on his camouflage I walked right by this one without noticing it at first.

The Einstein Project: Patches the Turtle

This is the other side of Patches ... what can I say, he was pretty slow. This piece of art was produced by Sara Gerondale and sponsored by Chestnut Gallery and Gifts. Once again, thanks to you both.

The Einstein Project: Patches the Turtle

This is the first picture you'll see of Patches ... another of the turtles produced by the Einstein Project. I'll tell you more about this turtle tomorrow, but for now I'll tell you why I liked this one. It's a bit nostalgic, but it reminds me of the kind of quilts my favorite aunt and my grandmother used to make

The Einstein Project: Turtle Island

Another of the brilliant turtles around town from the Einstein Project.

According to the Einstein Project site the painting symbolizes the Oneida creation story. Both of the painters are creators themselves ... one a children's book author and illustrator and the other barely more than a child at age 13. Thank you both for your work.

This one was painted by Stephanie Stevens and Jessica House and sponsored by the Oneida Tribe of Indians of Wisconsin. They are the biggest local indian tribe and run the casinos in town and by the airport.

Another of the wonderful art exhibits from the Einstein Project. This is the from the Friends of the Butterfly Project from this year. The artist is Savannah Carr and was sponsored by Davis and Kuelthau Attorneys at Law.

The Einstein Project: Star Fly

Another piece of art from the Einstein Project ... and clearly not my best photo. This piece was done by Shannon Frantz and sponsored by Ameriprise Auto and Home Insurance. My thanks to all involved.

The Einstein Project: Green Thumb

Another piece of art from the Einstein Project. This piece was created by Samantha Van Ess and sponsored by Community First Credit Union. Green Thumb can be found on the walking path near the river between Dousman and Walnut along the west side of the Fox River.

The actual name of this piece is Better Butterfly By the Bay, by the artist Sienna and sponsored by General and Vascular Consultants, LLC.

This piece is located on the west side of the Ray Nitschke Bridge and this is the best photo I'll get of it without a boat ... maybe someday.

The Einstein Project: Butterflies Among Us

In honor of my friend, "Butterfly", from Japan coming to town I figured I'd show some of the art placed around town from the Einstein Project.

This piece is the Butterfly Faerie, by Naomi Moes Jenkins and sponsored by the Aon Corporation.

Butterfly is a huge Packers fan. I'll ask her what she thinks of the whole Brett Farve thing when I see her on Friday. She will be the official voice of the blog on the Green Bay Packers as
I'm not native enough to bleed Green and Gold (translation, I root for a team out east, and it doesn't matter which as I don't follow them much either). Hockey (Green Knights, Admirals and Predators), baseball(Brewers, Timberrattlers and Bullfrogs), and volleyball(Wisconsin) are my sports.
