I exhibited at Art Santa Fe in July for the fifth consecutive year. I keep going back because my work seems to be finding a growing audience in Northern New Mexico—not only among local Santa Feans but also among art-aware people from across the country who come back year after year to spend their summers in the region.

For the Boston Pops 2007 Spring Season I was commissioned by the orchestra to create a montage of ninety of my images to be projected on a forty-five foot wide screen above the Boston Symphony Hall stage during two performances of Dvorak’s New World Symphony.
I plan to produce a video of the sequence of images I used for the twelve minute Largo or slow movement of the symphony. I’ll release it on DVD in Standard, HD, and Blu-ray formats. This is going to take awhile, but I’ll announce it here when it’s available. I’ll put out an announcement to the mailing list when the time comes.
