Summer's Begun - Back To Work


After enjoying a blissfully unproductive uneventful three day weekend, I'm back in the studio to finish up all those monthly loose-ends & paperwork so that we can soon be done with the month of May. Summer months around here are traditionally quite busy and I'm anxious to see what sort of activity this year's will bring after the virtual drought of the past two years in general. Given the flurry of activity over the past two months, I'm feeling quite optimistic about it all...


There are already a couple of decent projects on the calendar, a call this morning about another (estimate/proposal just now submitted for approval), an interesting sounding editorial assignment photographing chocolatiers pending and an invitation to produce a a solo exhibition of THE WORK tentatively scheduled for next summer. Should this one come to fruition, it will take a year of effort to put a show together, not to mention the goal currently kicking around inside my head to produce a series or two of new work specifically for this exhibition.


Late last friday afternoon, the last images of the three month project for Maui's Winery were delivered and reports from the client are very positive. Multiple trips into the vineyard for early morning and afternoon for photo-making... a couple of sessions on the stately tasting room grounds are now completed until harvest time... sometime in August, I believe... when the grapes are fully ripened to juicy fatness and more photography will be required. Here's a few samples of what was produced up to this point...
