This coming Saturday, September 13th will be another Second Saturday open studio at with most studios open, showing their work. I'm doing a bunch of new prints, testing out some stuff, and putting some new favorites on paper for the first time.
Come say hi, get a drink, see a bunch of artists you'll love, and maybe even take something home. I'm even making some dance prints and postcards this week!
Art Hub ATX is the former Good Dad Studios. at 2801 S I-35 (Northbound access road, between Woodward and Oltorf). Over 100 studios and 140 artists in residence. Open studio is from 1p - 6p every second and fourth Saturday.

One of my favorite writers has thoughts about where AI stands at the moment, and they are very smart thoughts. Writing isn’t just how we communicate, it’s also a way for us to think about difficult subjects and explore our thoughts. Using a LLM doesn’t just make your writing worse, it makes your thinking lazy and unimaginative.

New work! Reception July 15th, 6p - 9p. Come and say hello!

I've been quiet for a while - lots of traveling and shooting new landscape work as well as work on the latest projects for Forklift Danceworks, but starting tonight, and through this weekend, I have new work showing along with four other photographers in East Austin. Jennifer Sherburn has a new project in which she had each of us do a shoot inspired by one of her dances. The results are on display, and there is a performance with nine fantastic dancers running simultaneously, three times per night.

Checking out the gallery is free, from 6p - 9p, Wed - Saturday, and performances happen at 6:15, 7:15 and 8:15p each night (admission with advance ticket purchase only). Come check out the photographs and see the fantastic dance as well!
