Accepted! At The Darkroom, Longmont, Colorado

I just got word that three of my works have been accepted for a show at a new gallery called The Darkroom, in Longmont, Colorado. Yippee!

Here are the details…

The gallery is owned and operated by a talented photographer in her own right, Julie Cardinal. She has a lot of energy and ideas so it’ll be interesting to see how her venue evolves. You can check the latest goings-on at The Darkroom Facebook page. The physical address of the gallery is 515 Main Street, Longmont, Colorado 80501 (it’s right on Main Street, next door to the Longmont Theater).

A wide variety of styles are always on exhibit in Julie’s gallery. A gander at her website (2024 note: website no longer active) will clue you in on who’s work is currently on display.

The theme of the exhibit in which I will have three pieces is “The Interpretive Landscape” (my personal focus was more on the cultural aspect of our American landscape). The show will be judged by the Longmont Museum manager and curator, Wesley Jessup, and the Photo Editor of the Longmont Times Call, Matthew Jonas. There are cash prizes, but the big deal grand prize is a solo exhibit–which would be quite the sweet gig!

You can view all of the accepted works at The Darkroom gallery–and there will be some wonderful art to behold–from Second Friday, June 12th, through July 25th, 2015.

The three photographs of mine that were accepted for the exhibit:

First, a more traditional monochrome landscape, and one of my more popular photographs. The Darkroom used this image on their Facebook page to promote the contest and exhibit, which was very nice…

Sunrise, Sawhill Ponds. Boulder County, Colorado, 2014

Then a more apocalyptic scene that is part of my Western Civ 102 series…

Altar to the Gods. March,2015.

Finally, another Western Civ 102 image depicting something of our cultural landscape. This was also used on The Darkroom Facebook page to publicize the “Interpretive Landscape” event…
