Calvin Greer of Milwaukee is an artist who loves his woodwork. He is a self-taught woodturner, is trained in the art of stained glass and photography, and has been a custom furniture maker. He relishes creating artwork that calls forth his ancestral lineage and other cultures, and feels that his art is understood in the context of three creative streams: Africa, the New World, and the artist's own creative vision. The Greer Oaks Gallery, showing the work of Calvin Greer and more than 20 local artists from the Wisconsin-Illinois local area, is located in a 100 year old restored mansion-a work of art in itself-in the Brewers Hill area of Milwaukee.
We would like to congratulate SYLVESTER SIMS on recieving a 23rd Annual Black Excellence Award for his contribution in art to the citizens of the Milwaukee community and the world. View the Art of Sylvester Sims Documentary

Another Star has fallen on December 17, 2008 in Milwaukee, WI. But this is a Star that shown brighter than most. An artist with so much creativity and value on life, Patrick freely helped others find their own value and creativity until you would feel abundantly rich with it and it had to flow. Thank you Patrick for showing me how to express and create what was already in me. A true therapist, Patrick Turner! He will be greatly missed. But we will Celebrate your life.
