What? Another lighthouse!


Yup, I'm afraid it's true.  I got tired of doing necessary stuff (like bookkeeping) today so I dug this out of my archives.  The lighthouse and I spent about 6 hours in the computer together and this was the result!

At last, new work

Home from the road and the art fairs.  whew!  Now I've been digging in and working on my images, some old and some new.  Here's a few to share with you.

Sedona: Cathedral Rock.  We got there after the sun went down and all the photographers were leaving but I set up the camera anyway hoping for some drama and then magic happened.  I love that.


This is several images stitched together.  I've had the images in my library for years.  They kept telling me to do something with them and I finally listened.



From my trip to the Flat Top wilderness in the Colorado Rockies.  The calm before the storm.

Images from the road


It's hard to keep up with posting to this blog... I've been on the road to art shows in Bend, Oregon;  Jackson Hole, Wyoming;  Sacramento, California; and Sedona, Arizona these last few months.  Here's a couple of images I harvested along the way;

Salem Art Fair Completed.. Bellevue here I come!


The Salem Art Fair was a success. I was impressed by the wonderful setting and the management of the fair, and I'm looking forward to next years show. I was gratified with the attention some of my newer work received from the public. Most notable was the large panarama of the St. Petersburg shipyard which attracted a lot of viewers.


Some images from the fair:


Art patrons of all ages!

Finally, the trailer is packed with the booth and artwork, hooked up to my motorhome, and ready for the trip back home to prepare for the Bellevue Festival of the Arts show, July 24th thru the 26th.

New work for Salem Art Festival, 7/17 - 7/19



I've been super busy since returning Tuesday from a vacation/photo trip to Glacier National Park preparing new artwork for this Show. These are some new prints/images I hope to include in my booth at the Salem Art Festival in Salem Oregon next weekend.. the 17th thru the 19th. Here's the link for anyone close to Salem next weekend.. http://salemartfair.weebly.com. Swing by my booth for a visit if you can! I'm listed under "Digital Art" in the artist listings.

I love texture so I'm really excited about this new series of images. I created them from scenes of late fall trees (a huge amount of existing texture!) to which I've added/overlayed additional texture images. The results have tremendous detail and a depth and richness that I love.

Long overdue update and big changes!



Lot's of changes in a short amount of time have kept me fully occupied. After almost 20 years in my 5000 sq. ft. studio in Seattle, I've moved my studio and office operations to my home. Here are a few pics showing the transition of my new office... from an open rafters storage space in top floor of my 2 story detached garage.... to my new headquarters!

I did about 90% of the work myself in the last few months and I'm feeling liberated and invigorated with the change. Of course for any large commercial shoot I'll be renting out an appropriate stage to shoot in, but for my personal work I'll be shooting in the downstairs of my garage that is now set up as a small shooting space! So if you hadn't heard from me in a while and wondered what's up.... now you know.
