Mystery man

As with the photo in the previous entry this was taken with an Olympus Pen EE half-frame camera, using cross-processed Fujichrome Provia 100.

I really need to redesign this photo blog to better feature my photography. I realize that I don’t put as much effort into maintaining it because I’m not very satisfied with the look and feel of it. I’m hoping to have a go at it soon and launch a new design by the end of October at the latest.
*fingers crossed*

Lacking a title

For the life of me I can’t think up a title for this digital collage. I usually take this as a sign that it should remain untitled…

The image was created in Photoshop from seven different photographs, as a labour of love for a friend. All my work should turn out so well.

Nicole Dextras

flower dressMy friend Nicole Dextras recently launched her beautifully redesigned website. When I met her in Toronto years ago, shortly before my move to Vancouver, it was in the context of photography. I have since come to know her as an amazingly versitile mixed media artist with work spaning environmental art, paper sculpture, photography, and book arts.

Her most recent project was to create clothing from leaves and flowers for a performance at the Illuminares Lantern Festival in Vancouver (pictured right.) She is also in the process of working on a series of photographs of the ice sculptures and installations she creates in the winter months. For more examples of her work in each medium, please check out her website.
