Call for Art for Upcoming Roslindale Library Art Gallery Exhibit.
Locally, here in Roslindale, I have submitted two photographs for an upcoming juried show called "The Essence of Roslindale", which will be at the Roslindale Branch Boston Public Library. Deadline for submission is Jan 3, 2024.
My 2 submissions pictured below are called Village Courtyard Alley and Morning Snow on Birch Street.
Village Courtyard Alley photograph was taken in 2007. It was my attempt to document and glorify the Village Courtyard's brick and its deep orange color. The photograph marks the time when the gates were onced used at the entrance to Birch Street.
Morning Snow on Birch Street photograph was taken in 2005 while walking on a snowy morning to the Roslindale Village train station to catch a morning train to work. It was my attempt to capture the features of the Birch Street buildings and storefront architecture while creating an undefined but recognizable winter scene. Although the figure with the umbrella was the inspiration for this photograph, I feel helped create a mood for that damp, dark and snowy morning as I remember it as I passed through Birch Street that morning in Roslindale, MA.
