Photo Update

It's been a very busy time and so I've not taken nearly as many frames as I'd like. Printing and selecting prints instead. I have been very disciplined about the photo blog and tried to post daily this year to good result. Next step is completing the catalog and offering prints for sale and exhibition.



The Vaya Institue in Brooklyn selected my work for a solo installation this month which has been a nice success. I've shown a couple of series of black and white work from the Summer of 2007 to show. Several prints have sold and they are not the ones I thought would sell. Looking back through ideas that have been shot for the past 3 years and starting to assess the catalog changes your view a bit. In one sense you begin to wonder if you've captured some of the ideas you were chasing - because that's what it is for me- chasing an idea. Not really knowing what it will be when I get it. I always envy those guys who have clear idea to work and work it very specifically. I'm very collaborative and tend not to have "a shot" in mind when I start.

Also sense that I'm coming to the end of a series of ideas and new ones are developing. I had that sense developing in the winter but I kept shooting anyway. Now I want to go back to some models that I tested with and explore some different themes and ideas. I think I'll limit myself to work with one model for a set time and then stop. dunno. I have a few great new models to work with and a few that I almost stared but didnt' because the ideas were all fuxxy. They are clearer now.


Go have a look at the blog and see what you like and what you hate. I'm open to new ideas.
