First image for PHO 369

 

Last summer when I was visiting my son Eric in Houston we drove by a men's store that was going out of business.  We stopped and the coolest thing for sale were some damaged mannequins.  I paid my $15 and packed my very own damaged Apollo into the car.  He seemed just the item to use for our first assignment.

This semester I am taking and assisting Chad Smith with PHO 369 Alternative Printmaking .  The class is using Holga's with 120 film and old 4x5 camera's to make negatives in order to try different kinds of old printing processes.  This image was taken with an old 4x5 camera. 

To me, this class is as fun as recess was in the 5th grade!
