A quote: “I do not make art for your comfort. I make it for mine. I don’t make art to abide by your rules but to challenge my own. If, by some happy miracle, that effort results in something that others resonate with in the same way that I look to the art of others […]
A new idea
I’ve had an idea rolling around the attic in my head where I spend most of my time now. I’ve stumbled over it often. Picked it up and set it down. Gazed at it for a moment. Thought about it for another. Started. Stopped. Started. Stopped. You know. The idea began as just shapes, or […]
Been awhile, but…. I’ve been busy…
You know how it goes. Little jobs grow into bigger jobs that require new jobs to finish the original little jobs. Before long, you glance up, and half a year has gone by and the job still isn’t done. Well one of the jobs I’ve been grappling with is now done … mostly. My two […]
The Power Of The Print
Somewhere I read that information is being amassed and recorded at a rate so prodigious that no single human could read even a single day’s record in his/her entire lifetime. This assertion seems reasonable to me. So what of the historian of the future? Humans, if they still exist, many hundreds of years from now […]
Cave Spring, Utah
Trundling around the American Southwest again, happened upon a very short trail to Cave Spring in Utah’s southern Canyonlands. The place has an other-worldly creepiness to it. I half expected to peer into a darkened rock alcove and find some thousand year old wild animal or possibly a prehistoric human lurking there. Didn’t find either. […]
Bird Of Paradise Plant, delivered.
Angular, was my first impression of this unusual plant. Wondering at the name, I backed up to get a better look at it. The flowering part of this plant does bear a striking resemblance to the head of a large water bird. Thus, its other name: Crane Flower. I digress. The plant was delivered to […]
10000 Square Meters
There’s a new image gallery at http://photophart.com called, simply, 10000 Square Meters. Honestly, I’m amazed at the number of images that ended up there. They represent the exploration of a tiny patch of the Bighorn National Forest in central Wyoming. The Bighorn National Forest is millions of acres and gazillions of trees. It is big […]
The Story of Rex
Rex: an image of mine that was recently chosen to be displayed at the Dahl Mountain Culture Photo Competition, came about, like a lot of great images, because someone else – namely my brother-in-law Ken Nichols – noticed it first (he’s got another great link HERE). I call the image great because the judges liked […]
Why blog?
Why indeed. It is time consuming, tedious, and requires a certain inventiveness that, at times, I just don’t have. Completeness, seems the obvious answer. A well rounded, robust, engaging website begs for a blog as a means of explanation about what’s going on in the numerous galleries. It allows me to carry the ball and […]
