New Things

Don't look at the Explosions

 

We're opening up our studio in a few weeks to show off the renovations and recent work by Jared Wilson, Dominique Karwoski, Shawn Old, Robert Heishman, and Tex Jernigan.  We've renovated the 4000 Square foot space with a revamped kitchen, a few walls, a theater with stadium seating, and a huge chunk of artist studio space.  If you're anywhere near the midwest it will be fun to stop by.  I guarantee that you'll walk away with something to add to your facebook. 

*Open Studios on April 16, 2010, 6:00PM to...
3829 Main St.
The Basement

This turned out well.

Amanda Nervig's workbook. She came for a couple photoshoots a while back.

I like flags and clever web design: this has both

If you go to his website, his name up at the top left is also the search box. What I love about html is how it seems so limited, and yet, here I'm seeing for the first time today something that could have just as easily been done 15 years ago.

"Don't undertake a project"

There's so many things that you can do, sometimes it's nice to remember that there are only a few things that you should do.

I still can't believe we did this.

This was the setup we used for photographing the Texas flag on Thanksgiving. I had a ladder set up next to the Cruiser, and two white lightnings to help with the lighting.

I'm almost done cleaning up my website and now the homepage links up with actual projects like I originally intended, www.texjernigan.com

I'm running this blog on Posterous, and I'm loving it.   Maybe the other blogs can do this kind of stuff just as well, but this just works out of the box.  Sachin Agarwal puts it nicely many times over, "What would Steve Jobs do"  -- but I'm convinced that on many levels he's doing it better.  I can post by emailing post@posterous.com, all the options that you want are right there. 

For me though, it's all about the little image gallery he's got running.  This is kind of my big test: how does it handle 15+ Images? So here's some of the pictures from Tex's Flag.

So my Grandchildren can find it...

I was trying to determine the distance from Las Vegas to Redlake and I ended up on Google Maps, zooming into the actual location of Redlake, a installation I made in November of 2007.  It all kind of came back to me, the mountains the washed out colors of mid-afternoon. 

Then I saw the mountains, and I realized how familiar they looked.  You can kind of scroll down and look at the inverted Redlake after this project, and see the similarity.  Well its the EXACT same mountain range,  Here's the location in google streetview.
