This afternoon, as is our last Sunday tradition, The Visual Collective had some lunch and took a little photo-centric stroll. This month there was an art show at Wheeler Park in downtown Flagstaff. Everything from photos, to painting of all kinds, hand-made soaps, knives and everything in between.
As I am prone to doing, I took some ‘street portraits’. Above is Ed Wzientek, who crafts hand-made knives out of everything from rail-road spikes to old metal files. Hit the link for more from this great afternoon…
Unfortunately, I forgot to write down this lady’s name…She was walking around having people sign petitions. If Matt or anyone else got her name, please let me know; I feel awful and out of character for not getting a full bio from her…
Paul Hopman is a scratch board artist specializing in portraits of animals. After taking this and talking for a while, he asked me to put together a short video of him doing his craft. Be on the lookout for that in a day or two…
Shaggy dog ‘Cassie’ was a great subject…
As promised, hand-made soaps. The variety of colors, textures and scents were amazing, this is just one composition I liked.
Hopefully you enjoyed these images as much as I did. Be sure to check back in the next few days for a short video of Paul doing some scratch work…
For those of you who are technically minded, these were all shot on my Nikon D300s with the Nikon 50mm f/1.8 E series lens.
