Saturday, September 15th was about as not summer stormy as possible. Heavy wet snow, cold rain..yuck. But I couldn’t have asked for a better opening day for my 2 week run at Udell Xhibitions (which was held over for 2 weeks!). The Udell was the ideal location for my show. Lots of space to step …
It’s been a bit of a challenge to find the right place to show these 6 large canvases and the photos that inspired them (and make sure that the show happens outside of chase season) but I’m incredibly happy to announce that the Turbulent Skies show will take place at Udell Xhibitions on Gallery Row …
It’s been a busy fall even though chase season for me ended at the end of July. I’ve mostly been busy in the studio and I’ve now got all six pieces started. All of them are still works in progress, although some are quite close. Here’s a look at the progress, ordered by when I …
Like all summer storm seasons, the end date for 2017 can only be found in hindsight. I think for Alberta, August 13 will be the day. I didn’t chase that day as I was in Spruce Grove at an Art Walk but Nevin & Jeff did. They caught some nice shots Great collab chase today …
July 27 looked like it might be a good day to chase with Steve. The set up wasn’t ideal, but it looked good enough to head out. We decided to stage at Red Deer as there was quite a bit of uncertainty as to where things were going to get started. Plus Peter’s. About 2, …
July 23, 2017 is not a day I’ll soon forget. The set up looked pretty good and I checked with Nevin to see if he was going to chase but he was heading off on vacation that evening so decided to stick around Edmonton. I messaged Chris and Beth on Twitter and they both said …
I’ve been a bit late getting these next posts up but with Art Walk, Astral Harvest & Chalk It Up on 118 (plus 4 chases!), July has been crazy busy. Time to catch up and review. On July 1st, There was a severe warned storm in the Red Deer area and Kim & I decided …
I’ve now been on three chases, the first was with Nevin and Jeff, the second was with Jeff and storm whisperer Ronnie Rabena and the third was an attempt to meet up with Beth and Chris…but didn’t go as planned. June 26. Things started bubbling in mid afternoon and Jeff & I decided to head …
Last night I went on my first actual chase with project photographers Nevin and Jeff. Also joining us was landscape photographer Mike Isaak. During the day things were starting to look pretty good so we decided to head out around 5:30. Our choice was either Drayton Valley or due west out towards Wabamun. Initially it …
Yesterday I finished the second test piece for this project. (The first is on the home page) It’s based on a sketch I did during the keynote that Reed Timmer gave at Chaser Con Canada 2016 in October I think this video was one of the ones Reed showed which had me sketching, although there was …
