Auburn ArtWalk

I'm just about ready for the show at Latitudes.  All of the images in this show are 'film' images; black and white and color.  (I'm not shooting Kodachrome anymore; hence the Canon T2i.)  Most of the images were printed by a lab a few years back before I had my darkroom.  However, three of them that were previously sold, I scanned in the negative and reprinted copies.  Sent out my emails to those on my email lists, made some extra cards of France, labels done, framed images cleaned and wrapped, bio done.  Only one last thing which is a cover letter and I'm trying to decide if I need a more specific list, which I keep telling myself 'yes' you need to do this one last thing!  I deliver everything tomorrow morning and then I can breathe.  There are two other artists showing with me and they are both acrylic painters.  It will be a good combination.

My next immediate project is whether or not I will participate in the State Fair Photography Competition.  I don't know why I'm doing these 'contests'.  I normally don't pay any attention to them.  This deadline is April 20th.  Then the Blue Moon Gallery deadline to submit jpegs is May 1st for the group show.

In between and after that I will be getting back in the darkroom and finishing up Bodie and move to the European images.  I took some time out of the studio and worked in the garden.  The weather was so beautiful this weekend.  Finally got my two shopping bags of bulbs planted all over the property - kind of like planting an Easter Egg hunt for us!!

The Auburn ArtWalk is this coming Thursday, April 12, from 6:00 - 9:00 p.m.  Latitude's is located at 130 Maple Street.  For those of you who live locally I hope you come by and say "hi".  You can even check out the Latitude's website for their dinner menu and music listings at:  http://www.latitudesrestaurant.com/about.htm#32
