Friday, October 5, 2012 (5-8 pm) is the Opening Reception for my latest photography exhibition in New Haven. The show is at The Grove, 71 Orange St. (near the corner of Center St., diagonally across from Bentara restaurant). The photographs are primarily new works from my western trips over the past year. My opening coincides with the launch of City Wide Open Studios 2012 down the street at Artspace. The Grove will serve as my CWOS studio for the weekend, so I will also be at The Grove from 12:00 to 4:00 on Saturday and Sunday (10/6 and 10/7) – please stop by. My show will hang from October 1 through November 9.

New photos at The Grove

April 16th, 2012

I’ve recently added 6 more photographs to the walls at The Grove, 71 Orange Street, New Haven, where I’ve had black and white images on display for some time. All the new photographs are color, and some are brand new images, on display for the first time. The Grove is an exciting new community that offers shared and cooperative office space and resources, designed to foster collaborative thinking and innovation. It has been fun being part of this venture by having my work on their walls.
