I have recruited this Playboy bunny to remind you that the Brewery Artwalk is coming up in less than two weeks. I know you are totally dying to come see the artists in their natural habitat. You never know - you may find the perfect piece of art to decorate your home, give as a gift, or scare away the neighbors. My work alone can acheive all of those things, and there are at least another hundred people opening their studios to your dirty, prying eyes. So show up, mofos.
In other news, I got seven rolls of film back from the lab this weekend, and I was extremely pleased with the results. It's been a long time since I've shot anything in black & white, and I almost forgot how much more appealing I find my images when they're shot in black & white. Color photography is good for a lot of things, like that entire roll I shot of Liz's son's soccer game (yes, I am a soccer stepmom, frighteningly enough), but I have to say I prefer black & white for almost everything. It just conveys the type of mood I try to capture better than color. Of course, I do prefer shooting in color when I'm going to take photos of, say, blood, because you just don't get the same in-your-face ick factor without the subtle shades of red pain, but for the most part, I'll be shooting almost all my film in black & white from now on. Now I've just got to find some models, because most of my work doesn't have any people in it, and the people that have made it into my portfolio are all intentionally sticking sharp objects into themselves (i.e., they are bloody). I think I'm going to have to trick my girlfriend and/or other people into letting me take photos of them. I just want to take photos - is that so wrong?
