SFMemory Update!
291 glass plate negatives from 1910-1920 by photographer Sam Crow. These were stored in a garage for decades until recently scanned. Some remarkable views like I've never seen #sfmemory #sfhistory https://sfmemory.org/Update/2026-03-12

Paris | 2025

The easiest way to approach Paris as a photographer is to follow Henri Cartier-Bresson's footsteps—shoot black & white film through a 50mm lens, capture "decisive moments" rich with the stark contrast framed by those old, narrow streets. But you're not Cartier-Bresson, and neither am I. And Paris is a city

"Grimes Point"
pastel on UART paper - 6x8 in

This tiny piece was meant to be an experiment. Used gold paint for underpainting, and as a result, it has a soft glow, but no glittery feel. I finally framed it and took it to the gallery, and it was sold in two days. This is what I'll miss leaving the gallery; the direct feedback that people loved what I painted. The simplicity, the everyday scene had something that appealed to them.
