More or Less a Luxury

Just saying hello. I have been thinking of sending you a note for a while now, but I have been sooo busy with absolutely nothing. But your post of FB of your garden prompted me to drop everything and say hello. I hope you are well. Your garden looks wonderful and I can see why you would never want to leave.…

Just so Much Data

I am mailing out your prints today. Snail mail. Look for them. When you get them you will find 7 prints and a CD. Without looking at them closely or reading the notes on the back of each print, lay them all out in good light. Good light is a relative term. I laid them out on the floor of…

2400 East Lynn Street

It seems you have plenty of time to think about what to do with your studio. You have been there a long time, right? How many years? Kind of tough to let go of a place that has nurtured so much creativity. I remember leaving my studio and how hard it was, even though I knew it was not only…

Lock Me in an Old Building

Like you I use the camera to paint as well. I always wanted to be a painter, but also lack the skill. And frankly, think I lack the patience and temperament too. I like the instant aspect of photography. And the ability to capture, there’s that word, information and then interpret that information any way I choose. Even re interpret…

The Leap of Faith Aspect

Good to hear from you. I hope things, air quality wise are improving on your side of the planet. Seattle is just wet and more or less normal here. I have attached a contact sheet from my Il de France project. It is a look back at my time in France from 1997 to 2003. All black and white, all…

Paint the Sky Pink

Did you know that of our five senses, in terms of memory, that sight is our worst? Smell is our best. Something I learned in college when I read Josef Albers' Interaction of Color. He states that if we take a color we all are familiar with, like Coke a Cola red and lay out a bunch of red samples…

I was Here

I have always had a burning desire to make photographs. Even now, after almost 40 years. I love everything about the process, the seeing, the discovering, then framing and ultimately capturing. And then in processing or as we now call it, editing, seeing if my little caterpillar will become a beautiful butterfly. I have also always enjoyed seeing the ordinary…

But Does That Cheapen Them?

When I first started the project and the box was the final presentation, the panoramic work did not fit, format wise, so I decided that would be a separate project. I am going to let things stew a bit to see what might be a more integrated coup of work. Or it just may remain separate groups. Need to think…

The View From Sisko Gallery

On that note, my day here is making prints and cutting mats for my Portfolio III, The Digital Era, 2004 to 2018 project. Just a feel good thing to give me a sense of accomplishment. Then, this afternoon, garden work. The weather is amazing right now and yesterday we took a little road trip to the little town of Maltby…

Keyless Clock

Panoramic images of the White House I am not familiar with Seth Thomas the photographer. Only Seth Thomas the clocks. I have one I would like to get rid of. It was left to me by a friend in his will. But it means nothing to me and I just as soon part with it. Know any one who collects…
