The room was packed to hear Martha Casanave talk briefly (about 20 minutes) about her 40 plus years of photographing people in our community. Lots of recognizables were on hand including Jerry Takigawa, Barry Masteller, Jane Olin, Kim and Gina Weston, Al Weber and Dick Garrod. Barbara and Fernando of Batista Moon Studios were pouring wine and serving tasty delectables for all of us to enjoy. If you haven’t seen it yet, please take time to stop by the gallery to take in this fabulous show. You know where we are and you know when we’re open! Tracy Morrison
Huntington Witherill has resigned from the CPA Board. As he said in his resignation letter (ellipses indicate deletions):
For years, Huntington has been a great photographer, an enthusiastic supporter of other photographers, a gifted teacher, an incredible asset to the Center, and, speaking personally, a greatly-valued friend. I’m sorry that he won’t be on the Board, but my regret is relieved by the knowledge that Tracy Morrison, Huntington’s talented wife, has joined the Board. More on that later. Jim I’m a bit late in getting this posted, but I’d like to welcome Robin Ward to the CPA Board. Robin has 10 years of experience in web marketing, design and development. She was the Director of Web Marketing for Excelligence Learning Corporation from 2003 – 2007. Robin is currently the sole proprietor of Webmontage, a web design, development and marketing service provider. She holds a BA in English from the University of North Carolina, Charlotte. Robin is the recipient of a Merit Award from Color magazine’s 2009 Color Portfolio Contest; several of her photographs were published in the November 2009 Special Edition. Her work has been included in numerous national juried group exhibits. Robin Ward lives in Monterey, CA. Her photographs can be seen here. Jim We hope you can attend the opening of Martha Casanave’s exhibit this Saturday (March 6). Conversation with the artist: March 6, 2010, 3-4 pm See you there!
CRAIG LOVELL’S – FACES OF ASIA Artist’s Reception: Friday March 12th, 5:30-7:30 PM Marjorie Evans Gallery – Sunset Center San Carlos & 9th Carmel, CA This show is dedicated to my beautiful wife Christine Kolisch who’s knowledge of Asia and adventurous spirit made these images possible. Craig Lovell – Eagle Visions Photography 831.659.4445 http//www.eaglevisions.net I’ve just uploaded the catalog for Martha Casanave’s upcoming exhibition Forty Years of Portraits, which will open on March 6 at the Sunset Center. If you want to get an early look at the show, go to http://www.blurb.com/my/book/detail/1181707 and order a copy. This is going to be a great exhibition. Jim CPA Members: You, your family, and friends are all invited to attend my California Missions Show reception, which will be held on Saturday, January 16th, 2010 from 1:00 to 3:00 PM at the Hot Java coffee shop at 17400 Monterey Road in Morgan Hill. The photographs of the California missions in this show are part of a much larger body of work spanning several years. The earliest photographs in the show were made at Mission San Juan Bautista in 1979. The most recent photographs in the show were made at Mission San Diego de Alcala in 2002. All of the images were made with either a Hasselblad or Rolleiflex 2¼ x 2¼” roll film camera and printed on traditional silver gelatin photographic paper. Archival processing techniques and materials were used to produce the prints. The techniques used to produce the prints are described by Ansel Adams in his book “The Print: Contact Printing and Enlarging”, originally published in 1968 by Morgan & Morgan, Inc. Ansel also provided personalized instruction and darkroom demonstrations during his workshops, held at Yosemite in the early `70s. The process of making a fine art B&W print is very labor intensive and time consuming. For this reason the number of prints made from each negative is very limited. The individual print number for each of the prints in this show is provided on the signed Certificate of Authenticity attached to the back of each print. The show will be on display from January 4, 2010 through January 31, 2010. I hope that you will be able to attend the reception on January 16th. I shall look forward to seeing you! Steve Soult The gallery is open Tuesday and Wednesday, Dec. 29th & 30th 1-5, or Thursday 1-5. We are closed on Friday January 1. We will also be open on Saturday & Sunday, Jan. 2nd & 3rd between 1-5. |
