The new year has started off with a nice creative blast.

    Time in the studio has allowed me to create 7 paintings (in two series) and also about 7 works on paper. These projects have been exciting for me, as new ideas and visualizations are occurring for what comes next. I look forward to the next shipment of materials to start the process up again. In the mean time I’ll continue working on paper and experimenting as I can.

    I was able to process and update the website with the new photographic sections this past winter break. These areas include Digital Photography, Film Photography and Camera Model Information. There are corresponding galleries for each of these sections which will continue to develop in the future.

    Another feat has been incorporating the High Park Fire page on the site. This page has some writing and photographs from the experience, which I’d previously kept away from processing due to PTSD and the challenges that come with it. As an artist that experience was extremely life changing, in some good ways, and very difficult in others. I’m glad to have cataloged the event, because it actually seems like a small wight lifted from me. The High Park Fire is part of my personal history and sharing more about it might help with moving forward at an even better pace.
