“Megs” by Jonah Lemke
water color & ink, 18” x 24”

Jonah Lemke started tattooing in Eau Claire 12 years ago. He has since founded Wintership Tattoo and Art Gallery. As a first place award winning artist, he has made a reputable name for himself throughout the Midwest.

This work of art titled “Megs” is an 18” x 24” watercolor and ink portrait of Jonah’s wife, Meagan. It was given to her as a gift on their 15th anniversary more than 10 months ago. While it took patience, heart, and more than 30 hours to complete, it still pales in comparison to his true love and appreciation for her. It now hangs at Wintership Tattoo and Art Gallery on Barstow Street.

Volume One finds its cover art in a number of ways, from local art shows to random emails to knowing someone who knows someone who knows a great artist. The art always originates from a current or former Chippewa Valley resident. If you'd like to submit cover art, send us a letter.
