Fluttering Chrysalis Consumed

There is a creek called Five Mile Creek located near my childhood home in Birmingham, AL that's always been a place of magic in my imagination. These images are part of an experimental series I made that consisted of exposing plant life from around the creek during the middle of the day and then immediately processing the paper to stop exposure in the creek itself. For me, these prints are a combination of science and magic that commemorate this special place and the nostalgia of my childhood. Making these images was simply an experiment to see how pre-coated cyanotype paper [...]

47th Annual Juried Student Show

Happy to announce my tintype 'Enola' was accepted into JSU's 47th Annual Juried Student Show. This tintype and case were all made by me. The image is a dry plate tintype of my grandmother created using a digital negative. The case and matt were laser cut and engraved and assembled by hand. This piece and the others in the series took a ridiculous amount of time and work so I'm excited for the opportunity to show it off. 47th Annual Juried Student Show Jacksonville State University | Department of Art Hammond Gallery | March 10th - 31st, 2020 Opening Reception: [...]

Chemigrams: Beautiful Little Mysteries

Chemigrams are an experimental art form made by chemically manipulating light-sensitive paper. These were made using a variety of resists that include common kitchen and household items such as eggs, butter, jelly, cooking spray, sunscreen, dish soap, and tape. The resists are applied to the paper while the paper is being exposed to light and then moved back and forth between developer and fix until the desired result is achieved.

Top 50 in Hahnemühle Student Photo Competition

I'm excited to share that my #metoo series was selected as a top 50 finalist out of 700 entries in the international Hahnemühle Student Photo Competition entitled Show Us Your Series. I feel so honored to of been selected as one of the top 50 finalists from over 700 entries, especially in an international competition. I love to print my own work so I especially loved getting to test print on all the different papers Hahnemühle sent me and observing the differences each paper made on my image. As an added bonus my work and that of the other finalists was [...]

Alt. Process

Alt. Process This collection of work features images created through alternative photographic processes (non-silver gelatin) in the Alternative Processes in Photography class. JSU Student Art Gallery October 30th - December 3rd, 2019 I organized and helped install this art show in the JSU Student Art Gallery. This project was one of the requirements for my graduate Alt. Process class, and it was a really good experience. Collecting work for the exhibit was a bit of a challenge so the show ended up being mostly my work, but also included several pieces by Abigail Read, Morgan Worsham, and Evan Thomas. Work [...]
