I am loving the works by Elinor Carucci, Hair Dye, 2016, that Edwynn Houk Gallery has been sending out. And enjoying the legacy that they represent for photographer and gallery. See Sally Mann, Candy Cigarette; Emmet Gowin, Edith Chincoteague, 1967 and Frederick Sommer, Livia, 1948. History is rich with lessons. You just have to have eyes able to see it. #elinorcarucci #edwynnhoukgallery #emmetgowin #fredericksommer #sallymann.

Channeling one of my photographic heroes #fredericksommer with this photograph of yet another unfortunate bunny. So many bunnies hopping around our town this summer and our cats are having a field day. I count five in the last few weeks alone. . #gonebunnygone #bunny #shovel #faketintype #cohasset #cohassetartist #bostonartist. . - #bwphotography #blackandwhiteart #blackandwhite_perfection #flair_bw #bnw_captures #bnw_life #bnw_planet #bnwmood #bw #bandwart #bandw #bnw ‪#PhotoRTG #fineart_photobw #SPicollective #featureshoot #lensculture #burnmagazine ‬ (at Cohasset, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1ET0Pzgs3F/?igshid=tkhqwfykjen6

I was in Prescott AZ a couple of years ago and got to do some printmaking at the Yavapai Community College. My friend Naomi gave me some paper that had belonged to Max Ernst back in the 50’s. I was inspired by Frederick Sommer’s double exposure portrait of him to make a plexiglass drypoint for my first prints on his paper. I loved Fred and am so lucky to count him as one of my mentors. A lot to live up to. #printmaking #fredericksommer #maxernst #drypoint #monoprint #art #artisaboutinteraction
