2020 International Juried Exhibition

Juror: Aline Smithson, Editor-in-Chief, Lenscratch
Center for Photographic Art
Director: Ann Jastrab
Carmel, CA

I met Ann Jastrab at the CENTER Santa Fe review and she has been a tremendous supporter of my work. For this exhibition, over 2500 images were submitted. 110 were selected by juror, Aline Smithson. (40 in the gallery and 70 in the online show.) Aline is one of our champions in photography. I find her own photographic work technically superb and often whimsical in subject matter, resulting in a large body of work and countless awards. (I’m especially fond of this series she did with her mom.) But that’s only the start as Aline is a beloved fine art photography instructor and also runs the website, Lenscratch, which features a new photographer every single day.

Thank you to Ann and Aline for including me in this exhibition.

Here is the image that was accepted. I’m including its companion poem, though this exhibition was only photography. FYI, this image also won an Honorable Mention at the Los Angeles Center for Photography 6th Annual Members Exhibition. Limited edition prints of this artwork are available on my project site, I AM: For the Love of Nature.
