Donn and I traveled to Seattle for the Imminent Existence artists’ reception. It’s a fabulous exhibition and we had the pleasure of meeting a number of the artists who traveled from across the country to attend. We also met several patrons, including Dr. William Holderman and his wife Lisa, who added my piece California Hills to their collection. My sincere thanks to the Holdermans and to the gracious staff at PCNW for their support!
The Four in Focus exhibition, now on view at the Del Mesa Carmel Gallery, includes 14 pieces from my Mindful Reminiscence series. If you are in the Monterey area, stop on by - EXTENDED through the end of June. Details below.

I am thrilled that juror Hamidah Glasgow of the Center for Fine Art Photography has selected two of my “Folding and Mending” collages for gallery display in this exhibition! In addition, “Is More Than” was awarded Best of Show! This is a great opportunity to see these 3-dimensional pieces in person. View Online at this link.
Especially grateful to Crista Dix, Executive Director of the Griffin Museum of Photography, for selecting my work for the LENS 2023 exhibition at Perspective Gallery in Evanston, IL. I am truly honored that “Down the Road” is included in the 27 gallery images chosen from 1150 submitted by 232 artists from 32 states and 7 countries! The exhibition runs from March 2 - 26 and can be viewed online at this link. There will be virtual artist talk on Tuesday, March 14th at 5pm Pacific - registration is free - just sign up at the link to receive the Zoom info.
I am delighted that Australian Sci-Fi writer and friend Graeme Goldsmith selected my image “Conveyance” for the cover of his 4th book, “The Revival.” This sequel to his novel “The Little Hominid,” is set in a futuristic dystopian society to which a cryogenically suspended woman awakens. It is available on Amazon. “Conveyance” is from my series (and photo book) “Frequency Shift: The Stonehenge Continuum.”
Many thanks to juror Aline Smithson for including my work in “The Artist Intervenes” exhibition at Praxis Gallery.
Thanks also to the team at Praxis for selecting my piece, “Forest Deconstructing” for the invitation to the opening reception!
The exhibition will be on view in the Minneapolis, MN gallery through March 4th.
The catalogs are always beautifully designed for exhibitions at A Smith Gallery in Johnson City, Texas… and the new one for the open | unfiltered exhibit is no exception. Thanks to juror Kevin Tully for including two pieces from my Folding and Mending series. I think they look great together on this spread from the catalog.
The exhibition runs through February 16th and you can view all the interesting work at this link:

Has juror Ann Jastrab lost her mind?! She included my work in the Los Angeles Center of Photography “Project 2022” Exhibition! All kidding aside, I am grateful to Ann and LACP for this opportunity to showcase my Folding and Mending project - a response to our climate crisis. And I’m honored to be on this list of artists whose work I admire. If you are in the LA area on 12/15/22, stop by the pop-up exhibition at the LACP Holiday Party. But definitely take some time to view Ann’s statement and images from these 10 incredible projects online - through February 2023 at this link.
Editor and Curator Joelcy Kay contacted me about featuring my photographs in Edge of Humanity Magazine, an online publication that promotes visual and literary arts. I was pleasantly surprised that she chose images from “Transcendance,” a series from a few years back inspired by a collection of masks I inherited from my mother. The project is about trance dancing and the use of masks in tribal rituals. Long exposures in the images create a blur with the dance movement, a metaphor for the passage through time in which Spirit and ancestry are one – an eternally evolving line of genetic connection and wisdom.
You can now read the entire Transcendance photo essay online here at Edge of Humanity Magazine.
Many thanks to Joelcy Kay for featuring my work!
So pleased to have my work back on the walls at Valid World Hall Gallery in Barcelona, Spain. Thanks to jurors Zsolt Bátori and Borbála Jász of PH21 Gallery for selecting two of my Oregon coast studies for the “Shape-Barcelona” exhibition. Opening Thursday November 3rd, the exhibit runs through November 13th in the gallery but will remain on view online here.
