Day 66 - March 7, 2010

Today was my first solo gallery showing I've ever had! It was rather exciting to be able to show my work in a venue, but even more exciting to be the only artist there! Granted, the Hall Memorial Library is not a real gallery, but it's still a very busy place where lots of people go - giving my art a decent amount of exposure! My photographs will be up throughout the month of March just to the right of the main entrance. I sure hope that those of you who attended had a great time! It was great to see so many friends and family attend!

Until Tomorrow,

Day 59 - February 28, 2010

And another month comes to a close. It's amazing how quickly time flies when you're having fun! Fifty-nine days, fifty-nine photos! Today, I was up in Ellington with Eric and Ellen hanging my photographs in the library for my month long exhibition at the Hall Memorial Library. I am very excited about this opportunity because it's my first solo show! It took us a little while to get the set up right, but I think it looks fantastic. Ellen lives right near the library - and in this cute little house! Right next to her walkway is this fence, and on the way back inside, I snapped a quick shot. I originally was going to post a sneak peek at the setup of the gallery, but I think this shot was far more interesting! Besides, I don't wanna give too much away. You'll just have to come on March 7th from 1-5pm! Shameless plug? But of course - it IS my blog afterall! :)

Until Tomorrow,

Day 55 - February 24, 2010

So in preparation for my show at the Hall Memorial Library in Ellington, I ordered some new prints to display, and the first batch came in today! I was super excited because I printed a few more on this really awesome metallic paper. I actually printed a black and white photo I have of the Eiffel Tower on the metallic paper as well - and they all look almost 3D in person! It's hard to see here, but I loved all the colors when I had opened up the package, so I took a picture. It's kinda weird taking a picture of a picture (or multiple pictures, as in this case) but it made a pretty interesting design! I'm excited to put this exhibit up and see what people think! :)

Until Tomorrow,
