Proof Pages
Feb. 3rd, 2010 | 06:02 pm

I thought some of you might be interested in this:
As of today I have printed some 55 proof pages for the book. Here are some samples. The page numbering is just for reference. Once the book is laid out, I am going to change them of course to correspond to their location. At first I was going to make this a Blurb Book [I have done several and like them], but I had real problems laying it out and really visualizing what things would look like. I discovered that my Epson 2400 printer worked very well with Strathmore Drawing paper, using an icc profile built by Eric Chan, for the printer and Arches Cover.
The Strathmore pages are 11×14 inches, but lose a little length when removed from the pad. Here are four random pages laid out on the rug in our living room. Three of the images were done with my 35mm SLR, the shot of the palm tree is a Holga photo.

Tuesday I took down the work I had on display at the ‘Fire Ants Gallery”. The gallery is tucked away in the far corner of Tallahassee’s funky art quarter better known as ‘Railroad Square.’ Jonathan Markham runs the gallery and he invited me to show some of my work. The high point was the opening night which was on September’s ‘First Friday.’ There was a good crowd at the square and many of them came through Jonathan’s gallery, although it is so tucked away in a corner, that – with vans parked in front of it, it is hardly visible.
Taking down the work was actually pleasurable since the show had looked good. Alexandria had done a fantastic job of hanging it, and I had some of my favorite pieces up. In November I will probably be able to hang a few of my photos again. Looking forward to it. In the meantime, some of the work is going to go to Cedar Key, where a bunch of us have our work up in the dining room of the historic Island Hotel.
