Jackson Fine Art is seeking a full time picture framer for gallery. Responsibilities include framing for exhibitions and for client purchases. Responsible for ordering frames and supplies. Framing experience required. Contact Courtney at JFA.

I’ve worked there this summer and this is a great opportunity to work at an important photography gallery. The job may be open as soon as September, so get on it.

I got photographs in the newest issue of Trace magazine. Check it out: www.trace212.com.

I like the photos. I hope you do too.

I’ve been reading the Conscientious blog lately, and it’s full of good stuff. Today I came across this post about the value of attending portfolio reviews, much like several of us will be attending in just… 8 SHORT weeks!

Need some stuff? Live in or near Atlanta? Buy my stuff. I put it on craigslist. Oh yeah, included with the couches and vacuums are a color enlarger and darkroom lab sink.

Check it out.

I was accepted to the ACP Portfolio Review (yay!). Who else will be there?

And, for those who’ve participated in the past, what did you do to prepare? Any wisdom to share? What kinds of questions did you ask? What kinds of questions did jurors ask you?

Check this out!

I came across this art website called www.myartspace.com. They got vids and galleries of shows. You can also sign up for free and upload some art. Kinda Interesting . . .

I know everyone has played with a polaroid camera at some point. Well, if you have, and you didn’t really know what to do with the little things except tack them around your room, there is now a place where they can go forever. The Polanoid project is a website (and dedicated gallery www.polanoir.com) to preserving the exhibiting the art of the Polaroid. It’s kind of like a flickr page, except only for polaroids (and now analog film). The bonus is, if you get featured as the “Sited of the Day” there is a chance you can get shown in Vienna at the gallery Polanoir. check out the websites.

Elizabeth’s Photographic Foundations classes recently took a trip to downtown Atlanta to take photographs of the cityscape.  Here’s a shot from the adventure! Elizabeth’s Class Photo

Most people know about Jill Greenberg and her series of crying children called, “End Times”.  This article, from slate magazine, that I came across is a very interesting discussion about her work and how photography is inherently exploitive.

Hey, I got two rolls of premium luster (36”x 100′) for sale $125 each and I have a roll of Fuji film Fuji Color Crystal Archive Super C Color Negative RC Glossy Paper Roll (30” x 100′) for $80.

I have a 24″ roll of Epson Somerset Velvet paper with at least 35 feet left. I don’t think it works well as a photo paper so I no longer have a use for it. But if anyone can use it for drawing/printmaking/other stuff, I would like to sell it them for $75. Make a comment or talk to me if you’re interested.

Does anyone have any comments about the Besseler232II B/W Enlarger? I found one that I am thinking about buying (for cheap).

Thanks for the help!

Check out Polaroids new little toy. Now when a family member asks you to email them a copy of the family portrait you can just whip this bad boy out and save yourself from being put on aunt Susie’s bi-monthly newsletter. Thank you Polaroid.

happy holidays everyone,

Eric is coming to Atlanta and needs a home. If you know anyone who needs a roomy, let me know

love,
Eric

All Those in favor of SCAD’s breaks being like a month longer please just say ‘ I ‘ !!!!!

Can’t wait for school to be back in effect i call dibs on the scanner for the first month!

Whats going on with you all, lets hear it?

I just purchased a new mac that came pre-installed with ilife ‘08.  All of the programs are great except imovie which, I feel, is 2 to 3 steps back from imovie 6 HD.  While apple says that they will have the bare-bones program updated to its full potential, I will settle for a good thing they had going.  For those of us photo grads who want to revert back to imovie 6 hd, Apple is letting you download it for free here.

Ponder.
