EU project looks to the future of personal air transport

An envisioned Personal Aerial Vehicle illustrates what our city skies could soon look like...

A European Union project known as myCopter has set aside funds of €4.2 million (US$6.2m) to investigate the possibility of introducing Personal Aerial Vehicles (PAVs) into the skyways of many congested European cities. This coming age of the "flying car" where vehicles leave the roads and launch into the skies promises to solve problems like dramatically rising urban traffic congestion, but it also throws up some formidable challenges - it's these challenges that the myCopter project aims to address...

Celebrated Maui Artists' Colorado Summer Shows

A leading Hawaii jewelry designer, Danny Bushart (www.romanticjewelry.com), creates designs inspired
by Hawaii and Colorado flowers. He is known for incorporating graceful lines in his jewelry sets
influenced by the Art Nouveau Era. Bushart's work is featured at over 30 galleries in Hawaii.


"Colorado residents and visitors are extremely fortunate to have some of the highest quality outdoor art festivals in the nation right here in their backyard," says Danny Bushart. "What could be more rewarding than spending the weekend appreciating beautiful art and jewelry and then going for a wildflower hike!"

Multiple award winning Hawaii artist Jan Bushart (www.janbushart.com), well known for her Plein Air oil paintings (painted on location), was featured in International Artist Magazine for her work in founding Plein Air Painters of Hawaii. She paints up to 4 x 5 foot canvases on location.

Jan Bushart offers a unique take on Colorado scenery; "Ten years ago I was trying to think of a place to paint as beautiful as Maui in the winter. The natural conclusion was Colorado in the summer! We love to take our jeep high up into the Rockies where Danny sketches wildflowers for his next jewelry design and I paint the breathtaking panoramas. I believe the term "breathtaking" may have been originated while hiking or painting up at 12,000 feet. It's not easy coming from sea level!"

Many of the Hawaii galleries feature the Bushart couple's work next to each other. "We are excited to present our work together at some of the Colorado shows," says Danny Bushart. "Our goal is to create a gallery-like feel at the shows with the Rockies as a backdrop."

Both Busharts were accepted into every show they juried for so the schedule will allow a little less time for those jeep trips! But, you will find one or both of them at the following Colorado Art Festivals along with hundreds of the best artists in the country. For more information on each show, please visit the artist's websites: See Danny's jewelry at www.romanticjewelry.com and Jan's paintings at www.janbushart.com.
