Hello all I’m sorry for my long absence. It’s been a really strange time for me lately. I feel like I have been moving through a thick forest with a pocket knife when what I really needed was a machete. Just last weekend I had the pleasure of seeing the Gallery show I’ve been working on putting together for the last few months finally come together for it’s opening last Friday night at THE TRUST VENUE in Philadelphia. It was hell to get to that point trying to organize everything and make sure that the 6 other photographers involved were able to get everything together and to the gallery on time. The show consisted of work from Alan Charlesworth, Austin Whitney, Greg Gentert, Kath Raisch, Kyle Ferino, Nikki Graziano, and Myself. I felt it turned out well, but I’m glad it’s over because now I have a little less on my mind and can concentrate more on other things. I have a few things to post but I think I’ll space them out but for now I wanted to leave you with the first image of a new direction I’m taking in my still life work. In the back of my head there is still an idea of the relationship of man and nature but I’m trying to take a different approach. One of the other things I’ve been working on is a series of videos that continue the ideas raised in The “42 Degrees” video i posted a little while back(The second video will be posted by the end of the week). also as soon as I get through all of the scans I will be posting a series of photographs I made about a hunting tradition in my family. So there is more to come and again sorry for my absence. Let me know your thoughts.
