August 2000

As a means of sharing my recent work from Central America and expanding my professional horizons I took it upon myself to do two exhibitions and create a small line of greeting (blank note) cards. As each part of these projects became a physical reality I got an emotional boost and a feeling of accomplishment that I had not expected.

My show in Tucson was the fulfillment of a goal/dream from many years prior. It was held at a professional photo lab that has displayed the work of some renowned photographers. Many times I thought, “Someday, someday my work will be on these walls….” That ’someday’ finally came to pass and it was a great feeling of completion. I will take this opportunity to thank the friendly staff at PhotographicWorks Lab for their service over the years and particularly for hosting my exhibition and reception.

Revamping and updating my website with non-digital images was a time-consuming but rewarding task. Editing several thousand images and digitizing a few hundred could not have been done without the help of my new webmaster, artist and designer; Jeff Short, a.k.a., Todd Benson. My friend and associate, Michael Bennett was instrumental in the planning and execution of the aforementioned projects. Thanks Michael!

And I would certainly be remiss if I were not to mention: The greeting cards (Los Ninos Latinos, a package of 10 different cards) and many signed prints are available for purchase here (store).

They make great Christmas gifts!
