Plucked From A Dream
A soft focus with just a hint of color gives a dreamlike quality to this image. Oh, and it's a spring flower so we've got that going on too. Click For A Larger View

Forsaken Sentiment
Click For A Larger View The roses have faded, there's frost at my door The birds in the morning don't sing anymore The grass in the valley is starting to die And out in the darkness the whippoorwills cry ~~Hank Williams "Alone & Forsaken"

Excitment & Helping To Make A Difference
The Prairie Center, home of the Avera Cancer Institute and Avera Surgery Center in Sioux Falls has a Community Digital Media Art Gallery. This is a very impressive digital display that is over 15 feet long and 7 feet high. It is comprised of Fifteen monitors that provide crisp images of the artwork. The digital art gallery displays different exhibits throughout the year. Beginning June 1st and running for approximately 8 weeks, the theme of the artwork displayed will be The Art of Healing. I received a notice that my submission has been accepted for display. Needless to say I am very honored have a piece of work showing here. The public is invited to enjoy art and other features of the Prairie Center’s ground floor from 7:30 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

First Friday Downtown Sioux Falls
Tomorrow is the first Friday of March so what does that mean? Downtown Sioux Falls will be celebrating First Friday. First Friday is an all-day event for shopping, art and entertainment. On March 4, Sticks and Steel will be participating in the First Friday and has graciously opened a space in the store to allow me to display a sampling of my photography. I got the call from the Sioux Falls Art council on Tuesday saying they had an opportunity for me to display some of my work if I was interested. Well of course I was. It was a happy sort of a shock to get the call and I still feel kind of giddy. I will be setting things up tomorrow afternoon and will be present from 6 - 9pm. Sticks and Steel is located in the 8th & Railroad building. There will be artist at various locations downtown Friday evening. If you have a chance come downtown for the evening. If you do stop by Sticks and Steel and say hello.
Progress
The new Fine Art store is up and running. This gives you the option to purchase a print, add mounting or framing in a variety of sizes. This lets you customize your print to fit in any decor. All orders will be shipped directly to you and are still printed from the same lab I have been using all along. You get the same quality prints with more options. The new store option makes proofing galleries easier as well. Now when you have your session the proof gallery is easier to find and easy to share with friends and family. This will also allow proof galleries to be password protected so only you and your family can view the gallery. Visit the new store here: http://tomwoll.zenfolio.com/fineart
