Iceland Residency in July

Rock Study #1, Garrapata State Park, California

I'm heading to Iceland in July! I'm ecstatic to have been awarded an artist residency at the Baer Art Center in July, and I'll be in Iceland (and out of my studio) from July 9th through the 26th. I know Iceland has become incredibly popular with photographers of late, but I can't wait to see it (and photograph it) for myself for the first time.

Upcoming Artist Residency and Time Away

Just in case you haven't heard about this in my email newsletter last month or my other sites, I will be going on an artist residency at Chiricahua National Monument in Arizona in November. Because of this, I will of course not be here next to my printer and able to make prints for clients or collectors during that time.

I'll be gone from next Wednesday, October 28th, until November 17th. If you have prints you need made before or during that time, please contact me as soon as you are able (and definitely by this coming Friday) and I will do everything I can to get them completed before my departure.

I'm very excited about this opportunity -- a time of dedicated focus on my own photography, and in a part of the country I've never seen. I can't wait to see what comes out of it.

Artist Residency at Chiricahua National Monument in Arizona

I'm honored to have been selected as one of the 2015 Artists-in-Residence at Chiricahua National Monument in Arizona. The park, situated in southeast Arizona, is well-known for its dark skies, and I can't wait to photograph a landscape that is pretty much the opposite of the Maine landscape I've come know so well.

My residency is the first half of November, roughly speaking. I've never been to the park so I definitely look forward to checking out that area. I've include a photograph from many years ago in Utah -- not to be misleading, but it is the closest photograph I have to the landscape that awaits me in Arizona.

For those of you who follow my 56x56 blog or receive my newsletter this will be old news, but I'm heading off to an artist residency at Acadia National Park on September 1st. I'm one of the 2014 Artists-in-Residence at the park and I'm incredibly excited about the opportunity.

I'll still have email connection during this time though I'm likely to be online relatively infrequently (at least that is the hope!).
