Speyers was first introduced to Leelanau as an Artist in Residence in 2009. After teaching design as a language for thirty years at Calvin College he returned to painting full-time. He has taught plein air painting in Leelanau, participated in the annual paint out in Glen Arbor however has exhibited largely out west where his work was published in Cowboys & Indians magazine.  Speyers is largely concerned with the transcendent in his work. Frank has said of his work, “For this show I am planning on twenty small oil paintings. These will be studio work with several Plein Air works from my experiences visiting Leelanau during the various seasons, sketching and photographing similar locations. The works will be primarily of Leelanau landscapes, roads and skies. The theme for this show is: M22 Roads & skies.”
