Artwalk

Artwalk went wonderfully well! Urban Standard was packed! There first night, there must have been a few hundred people hanging out inside and outside the doors of Urban at once.

Thanks to everyone who came out and saw my exhibit. I got some great reactions from people, and all the business cards I laid out seemed to magically disappear...

I'll be posting the series on the blog at some point, so all of those who weren't in the Birmingham area can see it.

I'm off to Chattanooga today to shoot engagement pictures for my friend Nicholas and his lovely fiancee Melissa.

Artwalk, TONIGHT!

Tonight is the first night of Artwalk, and I'm pretty pumped! I spent a lot of time over the last few weeks getting ready for the show, and I'm really happy with the way everything came out.

If you're around Urban Standard tonight or tomorrow, stop by and check out the show!

Here are two of the four prints:

Stewart Vann

This is a b-side from the shoot I did with Stewart Vann a couple of weeks ago. The pages covering him are copies of his own song lyrics and poems.

For my ArtWalk exhibit this year I'll be presenting metaphorical portraits for each stage of the Creative Process (the title of the exhibit). I've summarized the process into four stages: Inspiration, Organization, Execution, and Presentation. The final portrait of Stewart will represents the second stage of this process.

This week is mostly getting ready for ArtWalk and preparing to go home for Labor Day. I'm ordering some more 8mm film, and I hope it's here in time for Mondays Hamburger Contest.....

Pray for my Brother, he's in the Sudan.

Rain, Rain

It's been raining all day. It's kind of wonderful.

I spent most of the day sending e-mails, reading through the latest issue of Garden and Gun, planning for my new site (shhh...), and preparing for ArtWalk.

Rainy days make me want to listen to music. Music like this:

Andrew Osenga - The Priest and the Iron Rain

Artwalk 2008

For ArtWalk this year, I'm presenting a series entitled "The Creative Process". The project is composed of five (5) portraits of different Birmingham Artists. Each of the five (5) framed portraits includes the documentation of how each shot reached the final print; this will include: the predicted sketch of the shot, a polaroid of the shot, a contact sheet, and the final print.

It will kind of look like this:

I'll be presenting at the heavenly Urban Standard on September the 5th and 6th, so if you're in Birmingham during that time, you should come by.

Look for some of the polaroids that will be featured in the show to make an appearance on the blog this week.

Peace. - Caleb

The wonderful Stewart Vann made an appearance at my house today. He has kindly agreed to play the role of the "Musician" in my upcoming ArtWalk project.

Above is a polaroid of the shot we made, and below is his "Song-After-Shoot".
