Wishes or Weeds? Matted in black with simple satin black metal frame 16x20x1
This image reminds me of my childhood and every time I saw a Dandelion, I would pick it and make a wish. So, in this image, I see wishes and choose to hold on to my innocent belief that they are not weeds but wishes delivered to the Universe via a simple breeze. Next time you see a Dandelion, stop, pick it, and make your wish! Only true believers will see their wishes materialize! Today I wish for peace and equality for all.
I’ve been busy in the studio creating more photozaics, some are as new as my recent trip to Michigan earlier this summer. I love traveling to new places and note to all you New Englanders, I’m heading your way on October 8th and will spend the month of October in your area. I can’t wait to see what New England offers an Artist… Stay tuned.

An image is of a man and his best girl named Summit. This was her first time jumping off the pontoon to retrieve her favorite toy and my cousin, Tim wouldn’t allow her to swim on her own until she was ready! So, he jumped in grabbed the other end of the toy and they both Doggie paddled to the boat.
My exhibition will be a combination of my collections Spirit of the land meets Sanctuary of the Soul.
” Spirit of the Land” documented in infrared black and white photography. They portray an otherworldly, surreal, almost dreamlike state that feels three-dimensional. These images are matted and framed in simple black, and they blend nicely with my award-winning Photozaics from “Sanctuary from the soul “collection. The inspiration came from Van Gogh’s textures meet Ansel Adam’s simplicity near the intersection of Bob Ross’ healing vibes. This technique is a labor-intensive multi step process and starts out with my journey into nature; recording the landscapes that I spark my eye may it be rolling hills, a babbling brook. After modifying the composition, I take the print and head to the stained-glass shop to find matching colors. I cut the glass by hand taking smaller shards, and placing them in a rock tumbler to remove sharp edges while larger pieces are sanded by hand and assemble the frame. Grouting finishes the artwork allowing the detail of each cut glass shape adding the texture to my art.
Just a few examples you will see at this exhbition

Gallery owners and art collectors I will be in Massachusetts from October 9th through 29th if you would like to see samples of my work, I will have some with me. Some samples will be from both collections Spirit of the land Infrared images and Sanctuary for the soul photozaics.
In this collection, the works of art are Mixed media; a combination of my loves of photography and mosaics that I call photoziacs. The artwork is available in various sizes, from 16×14 to 30×26 (long edge). These works of art change and exhibitions can be customized to fit the gallery’s space. They sell quickly so this is just an example of what I have to offer.
Contact me for Exhibition and Gallery representation at ncmguirestudio@gmail.com or call me at 651-470-0872.
I call this collection” Spirit of the Land” documented in infrared black and white photography. They portray an otherworldly, surreal, almost dreamlike state that feels three-dimensional.
I will be on the 3rd floor with many other artists selling my Art.
I create multi-sensory wall art that engages your curiosity of what lies beyond; what you see is personal to you. Creating art helps me connect with you, exhibiting my ability to make you feel like you are there with me. They inspire your desire to touch my art, so you can view and feel it at the same time. My surroundings play a big role in my photography story. When I’m out in nature with my camera, it’s through texture, lines, colors, etc., that I get my inspiration. I primarily use color images to capture the vibrancy of Mother Nature’s glory, but when the mood and setting are just right, I will photograph in infrared. This style of photography brings another worldly look, almost a dreamlike state that has a 3D effect.
My photozaics are a perfect mixture of Van Gogh meets Ansel Adams and Bob Ross. My technique is a labor-intensive process and starts out with my journey into nature; capturing the images that I will make into a photozaic. With print in hand, I head to the local stain glass store, making sure to color match glass to the image. All glass cutting is done by hand, smaller pieces are tumbled with larger pieces and sanded by hand before assembling into the finished work.
Come on out and see what new works of art I have and along with that I’m selling infrared matted prints and offering them in simple elegant black frames, and photo cards.
