So, in my last post, I mentioned that some prints were drying. Well, that was in May. Obviously they've been dry for quite some time. So, why the two month delay in showing the result? Well, the main reason was that I decided to go with the "straight" version of the image rather than the rice paper print version. I just found the image to be stronger in it's root form...as did the other select few whose opinion I solicited. So, that's how it stayed: 
But, for you loyal blog followers out there - I'm posting the rice paper print version that "didn't make the cut." It still has a nice quality to it...so I wanted to show y'all for comparison purposes:
In other news, I have finally found a pseudo-home for some of the non-plastic camera imagery I've been shooting. I've been struggling with the same issue for quite a while - how do you showcase strong imagery that falls outside the body of work you are trying to develop? At some point, if I end up with enough of it, I'll create a second portfolio on my website. But, for now, I've been posting those images to an account on JPG magazine. I've actually submitted some images for a couple of concepts for the magazine. But, really, it's mainly a dumping ground for new images I kinda dig that haven't found a "home" yet. Check 'em out and vote if you feel like it:

I've also been doing a lot of shooting - got back some film last week actually, so now it's time to edit. From there, I'll be getting some scans and will begin working on a bunch of new pieces hopefully!
That's the skinny everyone. Stay cool and more news soon.
