Masquerade

This dreamy photogram is about to get a new home. I'm a little sad to part with it but I'm donating the original to the JSU Red Tie Dinner & Auction event to help raise scholarship funds for the JSU Art Alumni Chapter. I created this photogram in 2017. I believe it was my second time working with photograms and I immediately fell in love with the process. Photograms are a cameraless photographic process. They're made by placing objects directly on the surface of light-sensitive material, such as photographic paper, and exposing it to light. The images are then developed [...]

Golden Lens Exhibition

If you're near the Shreveport, LA area check out the Golden Lens Exhibition at Artstation on display January 12th - February 11th with an artist's reception on February 8th. I created work specifically for this competition while in Shreveport this past October. I submitted three images for the show and know that at least one of them made it into the exhibition. When the Moon Calls My Name 'When the Moon Calls My Name' was taken in lovely Riverview Park with the golden Horseshoe Casino in the background and features a quirky clown figurine bought at a local [...]

Searching for Life: Regrowth & Display

My self-portrait, Lamb of God, is currently on display at Xavier University Art Gallery in Cincinnati, Ohio! It's part of a WE, the Women's Caucus Exhibition titled Searching for Life: Regrowth & Display that felt very appropriate. The opening reception is this coming Friday, October 7 and I believe the show runs till the end of October. I am bummed I won't be able to make it to see the show in person (unless someone wants to take a long road trip with me in mid-October) but I am super pumped because this is the beginning of a new series and the first exhibition of it. This image is part of a small set called Resurrection, which is part of a larger series that I am currently working on about spirituality. Speaking of which, I've been experiencing a lot of synchronicities lately. I'm not sure if this one really counts but today I sat down planning to post some sort of announcement about this exhibition and remembered that I was in the hospital with Covid this time two years ago. Out of curiosity, I opened my photo archive to see what I was doing on this day two years ago and this image was the first thing I saw. How fun is that!

Lumen QR Cards

Designed some QR cards for Lumen to give out at a conference I'm presenting at in a few weeks. I'm still working on setting up my game company's website [Blackwater Buccaneers] and I wanted to include my artist site and contact details plus a few specific links for this community so I created a custom Linktree for Lumen. By keeping the design simple I'll be able to reuse these in any setting. If you'd like to specifically keep up with Lumen check out it's Linktree (which just so happens to link to my other Linktrees, lol) at Linktr.ee/LumenTheGame. Is it [...]
