I am in the process of creating a new section of my website dedicated to images that I capture day to day with my trusty Olympus point and shoot camera. A photographer is a hunter in so many ways. Every waking hour is an adventure in observation. Whether sitting on the bus, out with friends or waiting in the dentist office there are always things to observe and capture. Most of the time it's luck or serendipity other times it's just 'shoot first, ask questions later'. In any case I'd lke to share some of these observations with you. I've gathered a few old ones and added them to a handful shot in the last month or so. For now you can see them here: PurseCam

The idea is to update the collection once a month as new images are made and meet the approval of my oh so critical editor (um wait that's me!). Please enjoy and let me know if you have feedback.

Whoa! Bad me for not posting anything for so long. I could blame the holidays and the fact that I just moved to a new apartment but in the spirit of my new year's ban on excuses I'll just let ya know what's going on now.

There are shows in the works for the spring on the east coast. Nothing settled enough to mention but exciting none the less. My muse William is getting some much warranted attention from art mavens and gallery folk so I expect you'll be seeing more about him. I am going to be collaborating with a friend and fellow artist to create an art book based on some of his adventures this year as well.

I am also in the process of creating a multimedia sound/vision installation piece relating to how people are using internet personals for self examination, ego etc. I hope to premiere this new work (when it's finally ready) locally first and then take it to New York and possibly Boston. There is also the possibility of re-creating this concept in collaboration with other artists, making each iteration unique for each showing. Exciting stuff I tell yah!

Concept work and collaboration seem to be the watch words for 2004.

Hope you all had wonderful holidays!
