Artist Statement I am currently a one-man-show doing all of this mostly on my own under the name Old 81 Studios and Old 81 Pin-Ups. In addition to having creative artworks for sale, I also provide custom photography for local (and sometimes not so local) clients. I compare my work from two years ago and I find myself going back and reprocessing those old raw files into a new and improved version of that shot. It will take me many more years to master this art form and to fine tune my style of work. I am a father of two children that love to help me on certain photo shoots and my 11 year-old daughter is also snapping photos and getting a little creative as well. She will surely be competition for me in the near future! Actually, she will be a great asset to our family business, Old 81 Studios. She recently told me that she took 41 pics of a spider. My 10 year-old son, is always eager to haul around whatever equipment he can. In that regard, they usually only let me carry the camera I'm shooting with. EDUCATION: My photography and art education was rather informal. I do have an Associate's of Applied Science but all of my photography and post processing (Photoshop) education and training has been self-taught by simply experimenting and also by reading books, watching instruction videos, and other artists perform. Most knowledge and creative style comes by doing and making some mistakes, correcting those mistakes, doing again, and finally developing one's own style of creativity. I have since taught several friends and fans some fundamentals of basic photography. I continue to learn, as one should always do. I do like teaching and giving other artists knowledge. I was starting out once and when I was new, I had no clue. I figured it out and still continue to figure things out. I read blogs and I also write them. ACHIEVEMENTS: MCP Gallery Exhibition (October 2013) Wichita, Kansas Enjoy browsing. JC
