New work alert!

Published

That’s right my peeps; I’ve been cranking out the art so much I forgot what the sun looked like!  Oh well these were worth it. I’m pleased to announce three new Commando photozaics to the family; After the Storm, Coming up Peachy and Stick figures. You and see these in Person starting August 7th & 9th for our Western show located on the 2nd floor of Solar Arts Building NE Minneapolis, MN.

After the Storm

They whispered to her you cannot withstand the storm; she whispered back I AM THE STORM.   Sometimes we need to rage like a storm, it’s the “knowing” when you it’s time to rage versus walking away with your inner sense of calm.  

Coming up Peachy

Don’t miss an opportunity to watch the sunrise, it’s a great way to begin a brand-new day filled with limitless possibilities.  This trip was over the 4th
of July and my friend and I got up early to photograph a sunrise instead of the gorgeous sunsets that we see from her island.  We ventured out predawn and found a great spot to dock the boat; sat and watched this sunrise come up over the horizon.  

Stick Figuires

Changing seasons are opportunities to harvest (autumn), shed what no longer serves you and go within (winter), plant seeds (spring) and growth (summer)! Like the trees I named Stick Figures now is the time to go within and see what needs to be released so you have room to plant new seeds of prosperity come springtime.  What are you willing to let go, to grow?  Inner peace can be achieved by following Mother Nature’s changing of the season cycle, by Natalie McGuire.

Experimenting with matting or no matting Continues!

Continuing with Emily’s suggestions of going matte less here are a few more matted vs matte less works of art. Images Breakpoint at Racepoint and Pine Edged Road.

Experimenting with matting or no matting

Published

I recently had a portfolio review with Emily Schiffer thanks to Photograph Resource Center Boston and she along with others suggested doing my photoziacs without matting.  She offered up the print option of Metal or Wood; as soon as our meeting was over I jumped online knowing my custom print lab offered up metal prints.  I decided to Experiment with my image called Green.  Below you will see side by side comparison of the same size frame but two very different looks as one image are printed on metal and the other is on foam core and matted. 

Please leave a comment and tell me which one you like and why?  I love reading your comments about my art!  I’m working on another comparison one in my Infrared series- so stay tuned.

The favorite photograph you took in 2022

Favorite photo of 2022

Reflections of Fall, taken in Bolton, MA

Early in 2022, I was out with friends having dinner and I put my mirrored glasses down on the table and loved the reflected image.  That sparked the idea that I would do this on my travels and create a new collection of “Reflected” works.  The below image is filled with bright colors, shallow depth of field, and of course, no photographer reflected in the image.  This you must stand in just the right place to avoid “capture”, LOL.  I do most of my work in camera, so this has little editing down in Lightroom. 

Stay Tuned for more work to come…
