A Collaboration: Nichols/Twedt

We've been talking about this for the better part of a year, but we actually got serious about it last weekend. Kimberly and I are doing a collaboration with our art. She will provide a dozen of her staged portraits and I will respond to them with overlays of my digital imagery. Once twelve pieces have been agreed upon, we'll have them printed on backlit film and installed in custom made lightboxes. We're looking for a gallery in the LA area, so if any of you have suggestions, let us know. Here's a sample piece that I sent to Kimberly to see, if this is what she was thinking about. It's just one of six images I sent and her response was quite positive. So, stay tuned and I'll keep you posted on the progress of the collaboration.

Richard's Professional Resume & Vita

I posted my resume and vita as a reference for anyone interested in seeing what my professional activities and associations have been for the past thirty years in the art world. Several cities have approached me about doing public art consulting work for them in the future after I retire in August.

I would like to invite you to view it by following this link: www.richardprofessionalstuff.blogspot.com

New Paintings & Lightbox images

I'm on fire.  I just created a photobucket site today, using images of the new series of paintings I started a couple of months ago, "Textured Photons" & "Photon Grid".  There's also pictures of the lightboxes with new backlit digital images in them, except for the "Photon Jewel" that is in the posted video "Lightboxes".  Here's the link to my photobucket site, www.photobucket.com/richardtwedt.  One suggestion.  Click on the  slideshow view.  The screen turns all black and the images appear floating in the middle.  I think it really does justice to them.
