Untitted (collaborative work IV) by Alice and Joe Woodhouse a photographic print with watercolour, 2008
Joe produces artwork that examines our relationship through cinema, digital landscape and simple perspective systems. The labour in production contrasts with the aim of emulating the sublime, creating tension.
Alice's painted shapes of smoke and cloud insert a nomadic presence on to the landscape. Within these billowing shapes the drawings reveal suggestive form focusing on ideas of consumption, creation and destruction and the creative practices of the artist.

Using a Pentax K-7 at Fry's
Image by dbkfrog
I finally made it over to Fry's and got a chance to sample a Pentax K-7. I was able to replace the kit lens with my FA50mm f/1.4 and insert my memory card in it so I could save the photos. The camera had a cable attached to it so I was limited on what I could photograph so I took this photo of a nearby Pentax K-x.
Note to Pentax: The salesman in the photo department (wearing a Sony polo shirt) did not even no they had Pentax cameras on display even though there is a K-7 and a K-x sitting there as big as day!

Educational Values

Software used were MS Paint and MS Photo Editor (which came with my computer), and PowerPoint to insert the title bar. I wore the buttons back in the 70s. Four class photos combine behind the windows of my grade school (I appear there twice). The "Absence" punch card is from my high school.
