Thanks to the kind folks at the Sammamish Arts Commission, I have six pieces shot in WA and OR on display at Sammamish City Hall through late January. Each of the six giclée prints in museum-quality framing are available for purchase.

Every Saturday morning, fickle Pacific Northwest weather allowing, spectators from all over the greater Seattle area (and sometimes beyond) converge on Redmond Town Center for a masterfully organized exotic car event. While some dealerships bring in display cars, for the most part the point of Exotics @ RTC, as it’s known, is for ordinary people to bring in own their recently detailed, show-ready, rare cars for other enthusiasts to see.
I’m not a car person, but I’d like to be. I’m working on it. It’s been something of a drawn-out, slow-burn awakening for me, from the days I drove a 143 horsepower Honda Civic in Houston to the present, landing in a niche coupe and more than tripling my power since.
And I’ve discovered I love hearing people talk about their car passions almost as much as I love being behind the wheel of a V8: their favorite roads, their modifications, their brand loyalties, the driving experience they seek, and most of all what design elements make their hearts skip a beat. I’m drawn to a squat, swoopy, mean-as-fuck silhouette, and lucky me — there are just so many cars at RTC that fit the bill.
Seattle friends: the Washington National Park Fund is hosting a special musical performance by the Northwest Symphony Orchestra and the Musical Mountaineers at Benaroya Hall - to be played against a backdrop of scenic photos…including one or two of mine! Tickets are available at seattlesymphony.org, or the link below this photo.
