Just a quick note to let everyone know that I will be displaying some of my recent work at Capitol Hill Hair during the month of Sept. I will actually be hanging the show on the afternoon of Sept. 5th, so from the 6th forward, during business hours, it will be there to see. Best times are between noon and 6pm during business days ( closed Sunday and Mondays). The shop # is: 206-325-2700 in the event you want to verify the shop is open on a particular day and hour. I have put the address in the ‘location’ window of this post, but here it is also: 514 19th Ave. East, Suite C, Seattle, Wa.

Repurposed or recycled, everything is fair game in art, including forks, tin cans and a baby doll.

Dublin Canals

There are two canals that run through Dublin, the Royal and the Grand. Both canals have a series of locks due to the topography.

Dublin Graffiti

The first afternoon we were in Dublin we discovered this lane with both graffiti and old stone walls. The lane got a little sketchy towards the end where it meets the canal. Probably not a place I would venture after the dark, but it was interesting that this was my first view of Dublin.

Dublin Hare

Rather tall sculpture of a hare in Dublin. I’m unaware of the significance of this human-like hare. ‘Alice in Wonderland’?

Walking around the Ballsbridge section of Dublin we ran across an Irish mailbox ( green, of course) and this odd, metal trash bin where people can deposit their old phones.

Red Hook in B&W

Was in the process of moving some image files off of the MacBook and into storage on a portable hard drive and noticed these two images so I reworked them a little and, voila! Location is: Red Hook, Brooklyn, one of my favorite places to walk around and shoot in NYC. Two weeks prior to Hurricane Sandy this is what I saw.

Stained Glass Window

Stained glass window in Galway, Ireland. The multiple spirals, I believe, are considered ‘sacred geometry’ and have been used as symbols for millennia.
