Neon 38

It was a very good trip my first to Washington to visit my daughter. My first cross country Amtrak ride, community in a train coach. People talked switched seats ate together, not crammed together comfort and communication. Three and a half days and then a Seattle stroll.
A day wandering the streets of Seattle I started the Neon Abstract Series. Perhaps I had dabbled in neon before certainly reflections. But this August Day in Seattle my focus was on neon.  enjoy pjc

Norwich History 10 or 100 Years Triptych

A Life in Photographic Art My second book

September Eighth 2002

Since arriving in Norwich I have been documenting the Cities attempt to revitalize in a very harsh economy. The Wauregan’s restoration is a focal point in downtown. The back wall has been a subject of mine for most of the nine years. First a shot from my “Layered Life Series” that abstractly presents 100 or more years of history, [difficult to see the nuances of downtown Trolleys in reflection at 72 pixels see comment here]  to the second image from the restoration and the third image of  the old Painted logo/Hotel name.

The third image brings me full circle as it speaks of the influence of Walker Evans on my images. The painted wall art of the 30’s Walker’s images were portraits of a nation, of the people but often without a person. These three images briefly tell a story of Norwich history through my lens/eyes, changing facades. A sketch of the past an outline to the future.

Photographic Art

Spend a few minutes seeing through my eyes follow the links poetry and philosophy of a pondering artist obviously not a 140 character man. Rich, poor by who’s standards? Smell the Roses.
