Local Artistry

[da]

...One of the things that's making me happy these days is that this guy lives just a few blocks away. Both melted_snowball and I love his work, and not just cause he took photos of us in our house, even though that was fun too.

He's starting up a photography seminar series next Thursday and subsequent Thursday evenings- I had a lot of fun the one time I've taken a photo session from him earlier this summer, and I'm looking forward to sitting in on as many of these sessions as my schedule allows.

This Saturday he's also hosting an open house at which you can see things like these: smp_photos (though most of those are of course not on paper, since he prints on demand). Speaking of printing, his attic contains a printer the size of a human coffin. It's a thing to be seen, after the art.

Anyhow, he's making my schedule just the more complicated- choices! Choices! Life is good.

The series may lead to a course through the community arts centre in the winter or later, which will allow more folks to take lessons for logistical and other reasons.

Due to factors that have nothing to do with wanting or not wanting to be around during the open house (where there are many prints of enjoyable sizes), the sprogs and I will not be at home for a large chunk of the 22nd. I'll have to make do with stories of open house adventures.

Yup. All of that makes sense.

Hope the family stuff goes OK too. :)

Heck, I'm not even sure where I'll be tomorrow. I'll try and stop by at some point, though.
