Accepted Work: Art of the Ocean State
Wickford was very busy this past weekend with it's annual Art Festival. I did not get a chance to go this year, but it was probably overflowing with great talent and enthusiastic crowds as usual! The Wickford Art Association, the hosting party, also held a call for entry for it's summer show "Art of the Ocean State", which I eagerly submitted work for. I'm happy to report that all three of my entries were accepted to this show, which will remain up in the Wickford Art Gallery until July 15th. Be sure to head down to Beach Street before then to check it out! (Perhaps before heading to the town beach?)
The Gallery is open Tuesday-Saturday, 11am-3pm, and Sunday Noon-3pm. You can always find out more information at www.wickfordart.org.

Warm Getaways
I had been eagerly awaiting this winter season. Here in New England, the winter months can be rather frigid, but for those of us who don’t mind the exhaustive work of climbing into 6 mil wetsuits or ice-cream-headache cold waters, it’s the eagerly anticipated winter months that bring the biggest swells. We had snow before the New Year and water temps quickly started approaching 40°F. But in typical fashion, as soon as the long awaited winter months arrived, I was craving a break from the cold gray in favor of a warm water reprieve.
Board Portraits // Experiments
I've been wanting to shoot more portraits lately, but in combination with the surf community that I've been so involved with the past year. My good friend, Kevin Tanner, behind Soudnings Surf Co creates some gorgeous handcrafted boards. He does all his own shaping, resin work, and glassing, and I wanted to photograph some beautiful boards to highlight his craftsmanship as well as portraits of my friends who ride them. I decided to do board portraits.
Snowy Surf Sessions
A lot of us enjoy the warm weather, but a select few of us still enjoy (or perhaps tolerate) the cold weather. And nothing quite says winter like a fresh snowfall! On the rare occasion Rhode Island experiences more than one inch of snow while there's swell in the water, you can find a select few of dedicated riders on the shore eager to have a snow session.
