Illusion and Chemistry: The Alternative Process

January 10 - February 4, 2012
at The Kiernan Gallery
23 B West Washington St.
Lexington, VA 24450



This photogravure called "Havasu" is one of the thirty alt pro images selected to hang at the gallery for this juried show. I'm very proud to have this piece hang with so many other fantastic photos in an event that showcases some particularly creative approached to photography (and image-making in general). If you have never seen any alternative process photography, or have only caught a glimpse of alt pro photo before, then you must see this show. I want you to see my photo in real life, but the show is bigger than me. There are so many good pieces to see. It's worth the trip.

Cyanotype Workshop & Alt Process Symposium in DC

during FotoWeek at Photoworks in Glen Echo Park


These are two of my prints from the Cyanotype Workshop with Barbara Maloney. One straight forward cyanotype and another toned with tea and coffee.



I also went to the symposium on Sunday where each presenter spoke for 30 minutes on their unique alternative process.

here is a link to the FotoWeek in DC. I wish I could have stayed for the photo slam some of the other workshops.
