About me, by the way:
In the guise of 'the only urban decay girl in town,' I work out of Studio 13 in the Jones Building as a poet and photographer who still writes early drafts by hand and typewriter and uses film cameras--Minolta X-700s, black and white film, and handtints some of the photographs using traditional photo oils. The Jones Building, for the curious, dates from the late 1880's and is now known as home to Findlay's 'Little Bohemia' since the second floor is home to studios for about 12-15 artists, depending on the season.
I've published poems, stories, book reviews, in a variety of small magazines and anthologies, and my photos have hung in a variety of local juried and non juried shows and local eateries and coffeeshops. My book, A Memento Sent by the World, came out in Dec 2008 from Word Press.
The photo at the top of this page is the cover of the book; it's one of my own photographs, taken in an empty studio in the Jones Bldg. The yellow comes from photo oils, which are applied like any paint and leave the photo visible beneath the paint.
This photo, by the way, is me. It's my writer's photograph. I'm on the Main Street front step of the Jones Building.
