Flurry of Activity

Hi everyone:

It's been quite a while…in fact, I didn't realize how long until I looked at the date of my last post.  Sorry for the long delay - lots going on and life has been preventing me from creating new work.  But, things have finally begun to calm down and today was one of my most prolific in a very, very long time.

First on the list is a brand new print.  And when I say brand new, I mean only a few hours hold.   I've been planning this one for quite some time…months actually.  It's an image I took while I was in Iceland last year, and as soon as I got the film back, I knew that it would be next in the queue for this series.   It turned into a bit of a struggle, but thankfully the image ended up looking much better dry than wet, and overall, I'm pretty pleased.


I still don't have a title for it…and honestly, I'm kinda open to suggestions on this one.  I've never done this before, but feel free to make some suggestions in the comments below.  As an added incentive, if I decide to take anyone's suggestion, that person will receive a free artist's proof of this image.  However, "if" is the operative word…I still reserve the right to come up with one on my own, but I feel like if someone ends up helping out, the least I can do is repay the favor.

Besides a new print, I also managed to do some shooting today - both plastic camera for the painterly series, and some digital images for the vintage toy series.  More to come on those soon, but sufficed to say, there's lots of new work in the pipeline.

Finally, I'll be showing at Gallery Plan B in Washington, DC again - this time for an end of year/holiday show.   Opening reception will be on December 7th, so all you local peeps, mark your calendars.  I'll post the official digital invite as soon as it's available.

So, start suggesting those titles.  One small piece of advice…I would take a look at my website at www.sirinsky.com to get a sense of how I typically title my work.  Just go into the FOTO portfolio, click on an image and roll over the "image info" tab on the lower right.

More to come soon, and in the meantime, good luck!
