What a night, what a night, what a night! You know it's hard work to stand on your feet for almost four long hours on a concrete floor. But what a blast! So many of my good friends came out in support, and in addition, there were loads of people out on a great night to enjoy art!
The photography show was so unique in that each artist had their own style and subject. Jim Klein showed his photography from his trip to Italy; Susan Raines exhibited her talented works in color digital overlays of various subjects; and Holly Renfro displayed her color photos from her trip to Japan.
My photos included a variety of my own choices - all in black and white, developed and printed in the darkroom. I had two from France, two from the Sacramento area including a diptych of a street person explaining the 'theory of global warming', Chihouly in black and white, Bethesda Passage Way in Central Park, two from Gladding McBean, and "Lithograph Cypress" from Point Lobos. Many hours I labored, but it was all worth the journey. I basically forced myself into delving deep into the study of this process by simply telling the gallery owner, "...all my prints will be gelatin silver prints". That was all I had to do! What a trip that was. Now that it's over, I am totally exhausted.
However, next month I am one of the featured artists at High Hand Gallery...so here we go again!
