The Lower Castes of India

Shadows Show

Here are some pictures from my solo show at Art Access in October.

grannie candies

I took my Grandma to do her most favorite thing at her most favorite store...the .99 cent store. She loves that place and can't understand how they can make everything in there for less than a dollar. It's my favorite thing to take her there. I don't know why she always buys these candies, but she does. Little kids don't like these guys, but old people love them...

Grandma at the eye doctor

I took my Grandma to get her eyes checked on. She needed a ride, so I gave her a lift. It's just a part of old people's lives, going to doctors and getting checked and fixed.

Some more portraits..

editing...ahhhh. Editing is the hardest thing for me to do. I always feel attached to some photographs that may not be my strongest pieces so I don't end up using them. These are some pictures I did not include in my show, either because I already had one photograph of that person, or because it didn't work together as a cohesive series. So...these guys got lost in the shuffle some where.

Some more Interiors..

These are some more pictures I didn't end up including in the show...

Just some blackmail of me working in the wee hours of the morning. Procrastination? What's that?

Show

I'm just in the last steps of getting ready for my show. I got a new printer so I've been figuring that bad boy out.

my office

Just some inspiration from some old photos and of course grandma.

spider web



I see you waterfall

family portraits

mimi has such a corky personality, I love photographing her. She looks so grownup here, like she has wisdom.
These are some portraits of the family while vacationing in Idaho.

Details in Idaho

I took these with a small plastic camera while vacationing in Idaho {and Oregon}

Flea market haven

These portraits were taken at the Idaho flea market. I love the people that sell there, they are such characters. These were taken for fun while shopping at the flea market for goodies.

grandma's cheese toast

While I was taking pictures of my grandma, she whipped up a cheese toast in a jiffy. Her two staples, cheese toast and soda.

heart to heart

I took this picture of my sister and Adam when we were camping in Havasoupi. I love how they look like they are in deep thought but not looking at each other.

my mama and me

I found this picture from one of my mom's scrapbooks when she was a youngster. I think it's somewhere in Utah. I love how they used to round the edges of photographs. Why don't they do that anymore? I think they got lazy. The colors are always prettier too...more muted or something.

hip hip

I finally got my business cards after a lot of anticipation for the mandate press co in SLC, ut. They did such a good job. I just love the letter press. hip hip!

hi

a self portrait I took the other day. Close-ups are so scary sometimes. I look like I'm going to eat somebody.

Spider webs

I went for a walk the other day and took some pictures of the desert spiderwebs. Spider webs are so amazing. This small little bug spins his own little trampoline home. Spiders send shivers down my spine, but aren't they kinda talented? I took some with my digital yesterday, so I'll post those soon.

Hot Pots

r

Me and cubby took a road trip up to midway to go swimming in the hot pots. We found some hot pots at night that were being used as a public bath for the locals. We saw one woman with a bucket, shampoo, and soap. We crept into the dark hot water in our swimsuits stepping on squishy stuff on the bottom. The water was too hot to stay long, so we swam and went. It was a good adventure.

mas

Still editing India...but almost done! I am having the hardest time editing pictures with the sky. Getting the sky the color I want is so hard. Sometimes I think it looks too magenta, too blue, too yellow...

heaps and heaps

I took some pictures of these mounds, heaps, and middlesness on a walk today.

rocks

I found these rocks that are surrounded by pretty colors of stuff that is growing on them.

lindon

since me and my sister bought the most hyper dogs...vizslas, a daily walk is a mandatory unless you want your shoes chewed up that day. So, we always go on this walk slash hike up in the lindon wilderness. It's ended up being our favorite part of the day, and the dogs trip out when we say the work 'walk'. I love utah, maybe it was Vegas that made me miss this beaut, but I love it here. The desert landscape, mountain biking, lakes...right?

at home

I took these pictures with my plastic camera of my surroundings one day.
