Illumination Intersection

In a quiet little corner of a quiet little island...

I found myself here.
It was as if I'd driven to a rainbow's end and discovered its pot of gold.

Holiday Sunlight

Happy happy to you.

A quiet fall

Simple Pleasures

A camera, film,
and
A walk through Golden Gate Park
with two of my very favorite people.

One Rainy Gift

An early morning walk led me to find
an open book
soaked with rain.
I wonder who left it behind.
Were they absentminded, neglectful, or a knowing composer?
So simple, so beautiful, I thought.

Airstream Sneak-Peek

Hello, do you remember this and this? Well, Josh has been hard at work these past few months, transforming that beautiful old Airstream into a real work of art.

Today you'll find me in Berkeley, unveiling a sneak-peek of Josh's Airstream Project, in conjunction with Berkeley Open Studios. Stop by if you can!

I hope you're having a lovely weekend too...

encuentro!

I've been waiting to tell you about encuentro, a beautiful new wine bar and cafe in Oakland's Jack London District.

Eric, Lacey, and Linda, the dedicated Owners, asked me to create photographs for their website and menu. Such an honor!

In the spirit of a neighborhood wine bar, they've created a place for friends
to "meet, gather, and encounter."

The menu is "simple, flavorful, organic, and local"

and the wines are organic / sustainable from small, local, and old world vintners.

The space itself is light-filled and airy, which made my job wonderfully fun.

Thanks to the kind people at encuentro for believing that through my photography,
I could somehow communicate the beauty and sincere deliciousness of their creations.

Raise 'em high everyone!

In the Midst of it All...

Much to share, much to share. Soon.

Unique LA this Weekend!

Visit me this weekend, Booth #110
California Market Center, Los Angeles

(psst... that's my "Dining / Shop" on the show's promotional postcard. Exciting, huh?!)

Slate Gallery, Oakland

Hello, I thought I'd share some news....

I now have photographs available at Slate Gallery in Oakland! If you're in the area, please stop by and take a peek. You'll find matted prints, as well as a mini-exhibition of framed pieces.

The Gallery is located on Telegraph Ave. in North Oakland's charming Temescal district, not far from Bakesale Betty (fried chicken, so good...)

Slate is a sun-filled and friendly gallery, voted "Best New Art Gallery" in the East Bay. They've hosted some tasty exhibitions this year, including this one , and I'm honored to be there.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope your December is off to a healthy start.
