Art Shows

I have been extremely busy lately, making art, hanging shows, booking weddings/portraits, making connections. Its hard to go from being only having enough work to constitute as part time to having more than 60 hours of work a week, plus trying to get ahead of the game for all of the upcoming holiday shows!

Blue Chicago

Here are a few photos from my F100, Cross Processed Fuji Film. The colours have been so over saturated and mono tone lately. Cross Process can be good and bad when it comes to the crazy randomness of it all!

Interviews are hard!


Everyone should be reading this fantastic blog, The Craft Begins. I absolutely love it and not just because she interviewed Amy + I about Portland Loves Local and other such Portland things!!

MIA in Chicago

I know I haven't posted in a few weeks, I've been trying to regain my steps since I came home from my 8 day excursion in Chicago. There was so much to see and do! We saw as much as possible and still hardly saw anything. I am still recovering and feel like I just cant catch up on sleep and energy. Ive been busting butt since I got back editing weddings, putting wedding albums together, making art, hanging shows, participating in craft fairs, cleaning house, developing Chicago film and working on Portland Loves. UHG! Give it another week and all should be well.

I picked up my film yesterday and although I got a few fun shots, I don't really think I took enough photos. Here are just a few from my holga camera.

Navy Pier


Buckingham Fountain

Chicago Art Institute

Waiting for the Brown Line

Grant Park City Scape

China Town
Old Graveyard

oh joy!!!

SO very excited about Chicago Renegade!!! Almost all of my art is made and packed, just a few more things to take care of before hopping on a plane next Wednesday with Cori!! We have so many plans for the days we arent at the show. Unfortunately I wanted to start packing my clothes and checked the weather and saw this...

Currently gorgeous and perfect weather, but the day before we get into town, RAIN RAIN RAIN!!!! Its an outdoor event and I also cant do all that much for photos in that kind of weather! LAME!!! Anyone in Chicago got a 10x10 canopy I can borrow for the show, or possibly rent?! I was also contimplating buying one from Costco when I get there and selling it less than cost [it costs $200 for the 10x10 with 4 removable sides].
