Shades of Gray at Gray Loft Gallery

My photograph, “The beginning of hope/The hope of beginning,” from the series The Maybe Lakes, is included in the exhibition Shades of Gray at Gray Loft Gallery.

Shades of Gray, the final celebration of Gray Loft Gallery’s 10th anniversary year, is a group exhibit selected by Ann Jastrab, executive director of Center for Photographic Art, and Jan Watten, founder of Gray Loft Gallery.  This dynamic group photography show includes a vast array of elegant, cool, and mysterious examples of the color gray - photographs in cool neutrals, sophisticated deep charcoal gray images, glimmers of gray in a color landscape, and the beautiful mid-tones of perfect gelatin silver prints. Mixed media, alternative processes, color imagery, and traditional black and white photographs will be on view.

Examples of photographs in the show can be viewed here.
