Finally, I am back in the city after what felt like a long stretch of flights and car rides and bus trips and family and old friends and lots of food and freezing cold weather. My brain feels sluggish, and I am re-adjusting to that unique energy and stimulation and high anxiety that is New York City.

I looked at my first rounds of proofs at the lab today for my upcoming exhibition with Francesca Romeo at Daniel Cooney Fine Art which opens on February 19th. This month, Daniel Cooney is presenting another Emerging Photographers Auction with work by a number of friends and peers including Timothy Briner, Nina Buesing, Jon Feinstein, Shane Lavalette, Carolyn Monastra and Shen Wei.

The auction ends on January 21rst, so that means there are just a little more than two weeks left to bid on great work by emerging photographers.

Also, Daniel was recently interviewed by Photo District News and offers some interesting advice to emerging photographers about being involved in a supportive community and showing a commitment to making one's work, and how this might organically lead to opportunities for exhibitions and relationships with galleries. You can find his comments here: Daniel Cooney's Emerging Photographers Auction & Thoughts on the Fine Art Market.

8 photography at Randall Scott Gallery

I've been knocked out for three long days with a summer cold, trying to pull it together to get on a bus tomorrow to DC for the opening of 8 photography at Randall Scott Gallery. Keep your fingers crossed or me that I make it on that 11:45 am bus at Penn Station.

I am very excited to be showing with seven other artists: Kyoko Hamada, Jessica Dimmock, Peter Van Agtmael, Alexandra Catiere, Shen Wei, Alison Brady and Ryoko Suzuki. The opening night will include work by all artists followed by four two-week two-person exhibitions throughout the rest of the summer.

Six of my prints, including both older and more recent images, will be shown along with Kyoko Hamada's portaits from July 12 - 26th.

Thank you to Randall Scott for noticing my work during his internet prowls and inviting me to participate in this exhibition.

Thank you also to a few people who have been especially supportive of my art endeavors in recent months: Bill Mondale, Charles Baxter, Mark Burnette, Matt Olson and Nina Corvallo. Your presence is felt in a major way.
