Photomania

I first fell in love with photography in high school. While others cut class to hang out, if I ever cut class, you could find me in the darkroom dodging and burning my black and white images. (This was before color photography became popular.)   I have spent the last year refreshing and refining my photography skills in this digital world. I shoot with a Canon 7D and I use Lightroom for post production.

Collage Mania is On!

Collage Mania is on!

Go - buy - support - the American Cancer Society. There are still some beautiful pieces available. Today, the collages are available for a minimum contribution of $40. This is such a wonderful way to raise money where everyone benefits - the American Cancer Society receives the funds, the artist gains exposure and a feeling of community, and the donor receives a piece of art.

Collage Mania will be open until midnight.
