1st Place Winner 
2014 National Cherry Festival Commemorative Print Competition.

Adam VanHouten was born and raised in Traverse City Michigan and is a local artist.  His wife's family's centennial farm, the Hoffman farm, is an inspiration for his cherry paintings.  His cherry paintings are a reflection of the local farming process, getting people to look closely at the beautiful colors and abstract forms created by a simple cherry.
