Here is the first of three posters currently at the printers. All the posters consist of a single photo with the Indiana dunes as a part. These will be sold at Lifestyles, Lincoln Way, Valparaiso, IN and Marquette Perk, Miller Beach IN.

All posters are 16″ x 12″

Will hopefully have them in both outlets by the beginning of September (2008).

Indiana Dunes yet again

Here is a pic of a lump of wood. I thought it looked interesting and realize that I may be in a minority of one but just in case I’m not……..

At any rate, I have received a request for some posters of the Dunes and that was the reason for the shoot. I wasn’t just mucking about honest!

Interesting show at Lake Street Gallery

Interesting show at Lake Street Gallery

“Blue Prints,” Original Cyanotypes by Dan Novakowski and Judy Schlosser.
Artist Reception: Saturday, August 30 at 7 p.m.
Show runs through September 18, 2008

At: Lake Street Gallery, Miller Beach, Gary, Indiana.

I have just put up a page on the Lake Street Gallery web site advertising this show. From the page:

Cyanotype is an old monochrome photographic printing process that produces a cyan-blue print.

The process uses two chemicals that result in a photo-sensitive solution, which is used to coat paper. Positive images are produced by placing a negative on the paper then exposing it to sunlight. The UV light triggers a reaction of the chemicals, resulting in an insoluble, blue dye known as Prussian blue.
The water-soluble salts are washed away by flowing water, while the non-water-soluble Prussian blue remains in the paper. This gives the picture its typical blue color.
