Devon at Jailhouse Studio - Portland - photogravure print - The Weekly Edition

Devon at Jailhouse Studio - Portland - photogravure print - The Weekly EditionA few years back my dear friend Katharine Jacobs was part of Jail House Studio, a very cool art studio gallery in Portland. Devon was over modeling for us and I made this portrait of her doing what she does best, playing a role of a woman from days long past. This is a larger than normal plate for me printed on a 15x20 sheet so the edition is a bit smaller. This hand pulled photogravure print is made with Charbonnel carbon black, raw sepia, and warm

A best friend moved away a few years back and when she was in Portland this week she stopped by to introduce me to her new partner

I made this photograph in 2018

My favorite model for this work Devon showed up with the hat and I had borrowed my mother's stole

I find the much of my work relies on detail
