I'm so excited!! My husband Hans just won his first photo contest with this photo. It was featured on the Indecent Exposure Blog for photography.

This photo was taken at the local New Hanover County Arboretum here in Wilmington, NC.

Here's the link to the blog!
Congrats Hans, I'm so proud of you!!!!

A Million Little Pictures: Documentary

This morning I saw a blog post from jewelry guru Cindy Edelstein talking about a project from Arthouse Coop in which 1000 artists from all over the world document their lives with disposable cameras. I immediately signed up to do this project. This past year I have worked on improving my photography for my website and have enjoyed learning more about photography. Perhaps its my exhibitionist tendencies that draw me toward this project, but I also think that I love to be involved with other artists in large scale projects. I find it very rewarding and inspiring. It would be great to see what your artistic life looks like too!

Here's a blurb from the Arthouse Coop website: "During the summer of 2009, one thousand artists from around the world will document their lives in 24 frames using a simple disposable camera with a flash.

On September 25th, 2009, an exhibition housing over 24,000 photographs will be constructed to take you on an adventure through the lives of these thousand artists."

Sign up to get your camera now.
