Sure would be fun to have you here. Some where around there is a guy on a shaky motorcycle that really wants another shot at you.

Shawn,

You just got to find a job that lets you play more.

Lee,

Isn't there one in the Montrose - Fairlawn area that takes your points? It is closer and there is just about every hotel name that I have heard.

Is the chief birder going to join us?

I'm up for a FAVA Six State Show drop-off lunch on the 16th or 17th or both... whenever folks are in town submitting their entries.

I'll try to check in here more often than I have lately between now and then.

Bill, would love to have your company at one of the local events when you can make it.

Thanks Lee. Is anyone else coming out to Oberlin with a Fava entry? Peter and I were talking about Sunday.

I think I would recognize him! I was so close, I could have pinched his cheek. :)

I'm thinking about it. I just don't know if my Mordançage stuff would go over well enough - I don't have much else done in the last 3 years.


I do have the May weekend penciled in. As usual, it's dependent on drill weekend and other things, but I really want to make it.

Thank God you are selective, since four of my cheeks were between you and him. Who knows where the Speedster would have gone if you had gotten the wrong one.

I really liked the Mordançage stuff. Go for it. There are so few people doing interesting alt processes that you should have a very good chance of being juried in. You have three entries and last year was the first time I got all three in. I'm sure it was because they were van dyke brown rather than silver B&W.

On the other hand there are so many digital entries that maybe Peter and I will get in just because we are printing silver contact prints. Who knows. Give it a try.

Hope you can come in May.

Speaking of being juried in, Dolly and I are going to this opening tonight. Two of my Ohio Farm Museum pictures were juried in to this exhibit.

“Akron Art Museum chief curating UA juried exhibition

The new chief curator of the Akron Art Museum, Janice Driesbach, is curating the 2013 Juried Student Exhibition at The University of Akron's Mary Schiller Myers School of Art.

The free exhibition runs through Feb. 28 in the Emily Davis Gallery in Folk Hall, 150 E. Exchange St. Hours are Mondays through Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The free opening reception is this Thursday, Feb. 7, from 6 to 8 p.m.

UA has offered art classes since it began as Buchtel College in 1870, and the talents of UA art students have been showcased in juried exhibitions for the past 77 years.

Driesbach has chosen more than 50 student works for this year's exhibition, including ceramics, graphic design, metals, painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, and video.”

Come to the gathering and make your own show quality images at the Ohio Farm Museum, the Cleveland Flats or the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Commercial over.

John

Wow, so many posts this far out ....

I'll definitely be present for some part of the May weekend - look forward to seeing everyone!

Also, I'll be at lunch on Saturday at Fishers.
