I am very happy to announce that four of my photographs and digital art pieces are now on display and for sale at the Red House Art Gallery in Graeagle, California. Graeagle is located in the Sierra Nevada mountains in Plumas County about 45 miles north of Truckee and Lake Tahoe, and about 50 miles due west of Reno, Nevada. These are the four pieces currently at the gallery and I'll be adding more soon. The owners of Red House, Brian and Toni Carl, want to exhibit 10 of my pieces, but I'm starting with four. The owners are really great people and have a fantastic collection of paintings, photography, jewelry, sculptures and objects d'art in a charming gallery in the heart of Graeagle. My wife and I own a condo in Graeagle and we love the area. It's a beautiful little town surrounded by fishing (lakes, rivers and streams), hiking, and, believe it or not, 5 championship golf courses (GOLF!). So if your ever in the area you should definitely stop by and check it out.
Evening in the Valley
This is the first art gallery to rep me and my work, but I certainly hope it won't be the only one. So now I'll be working on getting my works into other galleries. Hopefully some in San Francisco.
I am inspired by the works of great painters and sculptors to find my own voice and explore my own artistic expression.
I believe the foundation for compelling art is all around us. Because of my career in video and film production and my long standing love of photography I see much of the world as images. With photography I am able to catch those images. And using the digital darkroom I can further transform a bit of the natural and man-made world into my personal vision.
I believe that every millimeter of every image is an integral part of the whole. The elements within the image frame are what interest me; composition, color, light, tone and texture. The camera and digital darkroom are tools I use to unite those elements and create a cohesive, balanced whole.
I believe the creation of art is a journey of discovery. I do not always know where I will end up when I first click the shutter. But I believe there is something to be found. That is what get my creative juices flowing and invites me to experiment. So it is with a great feeling of adventure that I pick up my camera and begin the journey.
