And I am pleased to present my newest print work: “November 2nd - Los Angeles” as a postcard set. These images have been on a journey. The roll of color slide film traveled with me to England and France for a solo art and culture trip. And while I didn't shoot the film there it got a little fogged by going through the airport x-ray (accidentally!). I finally shot the film back in 2014 and had the slides developed and processed in Orange County. (Yay The Darkroom Lab!) I had the slides scanned there. I recently edited the images and I found a great printer to make the postcards here in Columbia Missouri. I'm so happy with the results and loving that they're on the world wide web now.  This is a limited edition series which includes 10 images shot on color slide film in Los Angeles during an All Souls Day festival. At this time I am releasing this collection as a limited run of ten sets available for purchase in my online shop.  Seeing the printed work work and holding the postcards in my hand is such a joy. Looking forward to sending this art out into the world through the mail.
More series and prints coming soon - so excited to share! Happy November!
I'm excited to share that filmmaker Tom Paige has just secured the REDCAT Theater in Los Angeles for a new recording session to be led by Jesse Sharps, our long-time collaborator on The Gathering: Roots & Branches of Los Angeles Jazz film and music project. This session will take place June 5, 2022 and will also commemorate the 60th Anniversary of the Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra, featuring musicians from the 1960's & 70's as well as new artists from the community.
The session will feature an important composition of Horace Tapscott’s called “The Ghetto Suite" and will be a historic music event captured as both audio & video recordings. We are in progress pre-producing the event, fundraising to support the musicians, the crew, recording and filming of the event. Tom and I will be on hand to interview the musicians to continue documenting this important history. We have launched a GoFundMe campaign to support the session. Check out the video. Head over to our campaign page, if you like it, consider backing it and spreading the word. https://www.gofundme.com/f/horace-tapscotts-the-ghetto-suite-recording We are very excited to announce that the documentary film, The Gathering: Roots and Branches of Los Angeles Jazz will be premiering in Los Angeles at the Pan African Film Festival in February 2020.
