I am delighted to announce the opening of f/9 Gallery, an artist-owned cooperative gallery in Culver City. We are nine photographers who came together with a single focus - to support each other as artists.

Over 100 friends, family, colleagues and art lovers attended our grand opening and artist reception last night. Hereiwth, a few images from that amazing event.

Dragonfly Gallery at Rosedale - Juried Exhibition

Marcia and I just returned from my artist reception at the Dragonfly Gallery at Rosedale http://www.dragonflygallerytx.com in Austin, TX, where my artwork is currently hanging in a juried exhibition entitled "A Photo is Worth a Thousand Words." What an exciting time! Many thanks to gallery owner Nina Mihm for putting on a wonderful event. (side note - it was 25 degrees and we had to scrape ice off the windshield so we could get to the airp[ort yesterday morning ;-))
