As
I write this it is the dead of winter. Winter means
many things to many people. For me, it’s a time when I
drift in thought to the warm weather I so thrive on.
Guess What! I’m heading back to Florida for the third
time in this young year for another 7 art shows! Look
for me in Venice, Jupiter, Jacksonville, and Tampa.
I’ll be attending Mainsail in Tampa the second week of
April…. My last show in Florida for this winter show
season.
I
have met many new people since the beginning of the year
when I spent New Year’s in Fort Meyers and doing Shows
in Naples and Fort Meyers. My last two shows in
Cincinnati and Columbus back in December were very
special, and I thank all those people who saw me for the
first time in my own backyard for their praise of my
work. I was back in Florida in February for two more
events and now will be spending March and April in the
Sunshine state. Images of the final nighttime launch of
the Space Shuttle are part of my work, as well as some
other neat images that have occurred in the past six
months since being in Vermont over the summer.
Plans are in place for a trip to Greece in May, but
whether it’s Greece or on the byways of our interesting
country, I’m sure more dogs, cats and only who knows
what will turn up in the viewfinder.

For Angel lovers
or just statuary lovers, look under
architecture
to see two new angel/gravestones taken in Macon,
Georgia this month. I stopped in the cemetery
where Duane Allman and Berry Oakley are buried
and found two special images to share with my
patrons. Fitting additions to my special angel
image, “My Work is Done”.
As my father used
to say, the wander bug is alive and well in my
system. My show schedule will reflect current
shows through April in Florida, and tentative
and confirmed shows throughout the summer in
Pennsylvania, Michigan, Maryland and Ohio, as
well as hopeful returns to shows in Virginia
Beach and Pittsburgh. I’m excited about
spending some time in Chicago this summer at
some new shows, and will update the schedule as
needed. For my patrons who have seen at the
Three Rivers Art Festival in Pittsburgh this
past summer, I plan on attending again in the
first five day session.

I was
told by a wonderful patron in Florida
who wanted an image of the
“The
Thatch Cat”,
that the image wasn’t on the website.
Well, I’ve finally added the special
image as well. Take a look; it is
dedicated to the US Airmen and RAF
airmen from World War II. And if you’ve
been to a show and don’t see the image
on this site…. Drop me an email and I’ll
update you. I don’t have a Facebook
account… but will always get back to
you. Cheers, Barry.
Stay and
touch, keep enjoying my visions of the
world through my lens, and keep yourself
healthy.
