Opening on Friday October 9th, 2009 at the Lost Horse Gallery 6-9pm.

The show has finally arrived, well almost. I am still running around like a mad woman trying to get ready. Please come celebrate and see what we have been working on. I will be showing buildings from Keflavik and Lana Vogestad will be showing a video installation titled Smoke Signals.

I am busy trying to get all of the colors correct on these images so they match ok. I never realized how much work that could be. Just getting them so the skies match and the asphalt isn’t totally different colors. It is much harder working on a computer to do this than in the darkroom. You can’t just post all of the photographs on the wall and adjust accordingly. Well, I suppose the darkroom might take longer with the processor waiting time.

Thank you!

There was a great turnout at Lost Horse on Saturday. It was wonderful to have so many supporters. Thank You! I was very happy with the way my work looked and turned out. Hanging it was a bit of a sticky situation. The walls at Lost Horse are old and very unusual, so making my work hang straight was difficult. You can see the manager of the gallery, Alex, standing in front of one of my pieces. Below that is a picture of my friend Vilborg standing in front of “Rock Garden”. Thanks again!

It is finally here. The first time I am publically showing my work from and about Iceland. The opening is tomorrow, Saturday the 13th at 6pm at Lost Horse Gallery.I hope to see you all there. Here is a sample of what I will be showing. Oh, and I would like thank The American Scandinavian Foundation for making this project possible. They are a wonderful organization who sponsers many cultural exchanges between Scandinavia and the US.
