Well it happened so fast!  First my portfolio preview in the Still Point Art Quarterly magazine and then representation confirmation from Xanadu Art Gallery of Scottsdale, AR.  One thing that this means is that certain pictures on this website will only be available through Xanadu Art Gallery from now on.  These selections might change over time so if you don’t get a buy option on any photo in the gallery you should check here :

These shots were for a contest called “City Scapes”

19th and Texas Street

I WAS headed to the frame shop but was detained slightly. (for hours) Maybe these views from Noe Valley will help you see why. Some things just must be done!

I have been doing a lot of studying on the tech side for some time now and working on more REFLECTIONS. Mostly still in the Haight Ashbury but they keep happening wherever I go. The study includes printing and techniques to ready myself for a possible show at the City Art Gallery Co-Op for citizen artists and I have secured an interview in Feb. My new framing guru is offering me a show in May so I’ve been hard at it producing for these venues just in case (which is just a possible plus to my work I’d be doing anyway!).

Well, back to the contest. 2 hours before the deadline I decide to enter this contest. Luckily I had some recent work for an upcoming book all edited and so I dove in. Finished with 12 minutes to spare (deadline 11:59EST) Here’s the link to a slideshow of my entries and voting counts with other criteria toward a bonus prize so do the right thing (please :] I really like all the results of my study and am close to finishing my next book. it

Best of the Seasons to you and yours,
