I'm showing ten prints tonight at the Biodiversity Conservation Alliance (BCA) offices in downtown Laramie from 6-9.  Actually, the photos will be up all month, but BCA is sponsoring a reception tonight with music and refreshments.  If you're in Laramie, come down and say hi.  Part of the profit from any print sales will go to BCA.  The images that I'm showing are mostly focused on Wyoming Basins--BCA is active in helping to protect these places from the relentless pressure of energy development. 

BCA is located in the white building at 412 S. 2nd.  It's the big white building with the hollyhock mural on the south side.

First, sorry about the long blog hiatus.  Classes began at UW (no, not Washington, not Wisconsin: Wyoming!) two weeks ago and I'm inundated with teaching this semester.  I'm starting to settle into a routine (work, sleep, repeat) and will try to be more regular with blog posts.

The Math and Science Teaching Center at UW here in Laramie is having an opening this Wednesday (September 12, 6:30 p.m.) for local artists whose work was chosen to decorate their space on 3rd floor of Wyo Hall, on campus.  The three images in this blog post will all be in the show as 12" x 18" framed prints.  I plan to be there, and if you're looking for something to do midweek, stop by.  

In other news, I'm gearing up for two other shows this fall.  The biennial Laramie Artists Project show will be held November 17-18 at the Fairfield Inn in Laramie.  If you aren't familiar with it, we rent a floor of the hotel and each of more than 30 local artists transform a room into a gallery.  It's always a fun event with some great artwork for sale.  I'll mostly focus on Wyoming work this year.

I also have a show of my Uganda work at the Dairy Center for the Arts in Boulder.  The opening is on November 2 and the show will hang until December 7. 

I've also donated an image to BCA (the Biodiversity Conservation Alliance), an incredibly effective conservation group based here in Laramie, for silent auction at their fund-raising Badger Ball on the evening of September 15 at the Alice Hardy Stevens Center in Laramie.  Attend if you can for an evening of music (J. Shogren and Jeff Duloz), drinks, food, and art.

How I'm going to get ready for these shows and keep up with classes is one of the mysteries of the universe, but it's one that I'll have to solve pretty soon.

Show at Breadworks in Boulder

Naan, Kashgar, Xinjiang Province, China (2006).

Beginning next Friday, I am showing photographs at Breadworks, a popular eatery in Boulder, Colorado.  The show will feature work from when I lived in China in 2005-06.  If you live in the Boulder area, I'd love to see you at the opening on Friday night, January 20, from 6-9 p.m. at Breadworks.  They are providing music and food!  If you would like to see more of my China images, you can view them on flickr, my website, and a blog that I wrote while living in Yunnan.

I'll post some more of the work I'll be showing in the next few days.

Listening to Nature: UW Berry Center

I'm showing photos on Friday night, October 28, at the University of Wyoming Berry Center.  The program is called Listening to Nature, and includes readings by scientists and artists, and photos by myself and two other Laramie photographers, Ed Sherline and Brett Deacon.  The image above was taken below the Skull Rim in SW Wyoming while on a photo and camping trip with Ed.  Ed and I were wandering around under a stormy sky, each capturing almost at the same time very different images that we will be showing on Friday.  If you're in Laramie, the event is at the Berry Center starting at 5:30.
