Art Show - AAC - Open Photo Show

These are my submissions for the Open Photography Show 2026 in the Spruce Grove Art Gallery hosted by the Allied Arts Council.

Title: Country Decor

Size: 11 x 11 inches

Frame: Thin Silver Metal Frame

Mat: Double White Mat

Photograph: Photo 4 x 6 inch 

This was taken at the Blue Bird Farm where red geranium flowers were planted in a wooden planter hung on the side of an out building.

Title: O

Size: 12.5 x 11.75 inches

Frame: Narrow Silver Blue Metal Frame

Mat: Double White/Blue Mat

Photograph: Photo 6 x 8 inch 

This was created with the light painting technique.  I set up in my laundry room and shut the door.  Using a set of fairy lights I painted in front of the camera set to capture for several seconds.  Somewhat difficult to keep my bearings as to where the edges of the frame are.  Many shots taken with a few good ones.

Title: Crusty Rusty

Size: 14 x 14 inches

Frame: Black Wide Profile Wooden Frame

Mat: Double Black Mat

Photograph: Photo 8 x 8 inch

Amazing texture in a metal plate attached to an abandoned building.

Nature has her way with things and with water dripping on this metal over the years a heavy layer of rust grew.

I like the organic shapes and the beautiful colors.

Our reception will be at the Spruce Grove Art Gallery in Heavy Metal Place.
