SO I have been a bit busy lately with work and getting ready for my first solo show. Yeah, a solo show….WOW, very excited and a bit nervous.\u00a0 40-45 of my best images will hang for the month of April at The Gallery 13<\/a> in Asbury Park NJ, very cool! A great Gallery dedicated to emerging photographers, John Vigg and a team of very talented Resident Photographers have this eclectic and positive vibe\u00a0 just oozing from the walls and they are a pleasure to work with.<\/p>\n

Now the whole SOLO thing sounded so cool (and it still is) then reality sets in and you wonder IF<\/strong>, that dreaded word. WHAT IF my images, WHAT IF…. you get the drift. Well let me tell ya you have to answer those questions quickly. I did. I worked through my library and did a first cut, then a second and a third before I asked 2 others to review my selected images. One was my Uncle Sam who was a professional photographer and the other was Nicole – my girlfriend. I know what you are thinking and you’d be wrong, she is tougher on my work that I am at times and always, ALWAYS gives me honest feedback. From this there was a 4th cut and viola 45 Images to show.\u00a0 Then the fun began.<\/p>\n

Mats, Frames, Backing, and what color mats, how would we mount them and so on. We did have fun getting this all together and here we are. Monday just 5 days until the opening and I will be hanging the show Wednesday this week. What a ride to get\u00a0 to the trail head, Saturday night April 2nd at 6pm the journey begins. Nature’s Palette <\/strong>my solo show opens for all to see my body of work, talk about feeling naked. Nervous, excited and I feel like I am at a crossroads to boot. I can not wait for Saturday!<\/p>\n

ndThen we were getting the word out and we still are. Handing out flyers to every restaurant a business who would accept them and getting a few posters up here and there. It has been a learning experience and a damned good one. Regardless of what happens I am so grateful for this opportunity!<\/p>\n

If you happen to be in Monmouth County NJ near Asbury Park drop in to 658 Cookman Ave and check out both The Gallery 13<\/a> and my show there Nature’s Palette and say hello. Nature’s Palette is a collection of images inspired by Mother Nature’s vast and endless combinations of colors, textures and moods.<\/p>\n

I look forward to meeting you at the Gallery. Happy Snapping.<\/p>\n
