Whirlwind - it strikes me as such an odd phrase, but very appropriate for the last month. Or maybe it is just relative to the past few years of quietly creating work but barely sharing any of it. This has been the month of exhibition application and preparation but very little creation.  

Last months blog was about a series I did on Silence. Soon after publishing that blog, the curator of an exhibition in Bologna, Italy contacted me and asked me to submit 4 images. However, all of the images in the exhibit are in a square format, instead of the original rectangular format. While I was sleeping, my brain figured out a way to re-edit the images that did not involve cropping. These 4 are now in Bologna awaiting the opening on May 28th.

For some reason I had never thought much about creating square images, but to be honest, this experience flipped an aesthetic switch and I just love square images now.  Yesterday I picked up this image, Emerging Spring, from the printer and I love how it looks.

Towards the end of the month, I applied to and was accepted into the Abstract'd Art Collective. Next week I will be hanging images in a group exhibition. I will send out the May opening information when I have the details.

There was more work done on the planning of other future exhibits, but I will save that information for when the work goes up on the walls. Now, I think I would like to return to the quite life of creating new work. Here is a new series I recently put together.

Have a wonderful Holiday Weekend.
