September 2006
Greetings!
Kim Weston and Reed Farrington;
Painted Photographs: A Collaboration
Don't Forget the opening Saturday September 23, 2006 2-5pm at the
Blackstone Gallery 850 South Alta St. Gonzales CA 831-675-5341
It is half way through September and I am just getting around to sending
out the newsletter. How time flies by. I am been working on the new site
design and have already made several hundred pages. It takes a lot of
time and thought to make a web site easy to navigate. I am excited with
the new design, knowing it will free me up to do many of the other
projects that Kim and I have planned. So stay tuned...

2006 Web Site Updates
Kim has some beautiful new images that are not up on our site yet. I
also have not posted any of the 2006 workshop pictures either. I just
didn't want to do it twice. So stay tuned because they will be on the
newly designed site soon! I already most of the Kim Weston Galleries
completed; New Work, Silver Gelatin and Special Edition. I have Platinum
and Vintage to go and then the whole rest of the site, Workshops,
History, Guests, Wildcat Hill, and then of course Edward, Brett and Cole
Weston. It will be great once it is finished and you will be seeing many
new silver prints and special edition prints.
Thank you for all of your
support by purchasing our photographs, coming for workshops, tutorials
and for bringing your groups by to visit!
Thanks to all of you new subscribers! It has been a great year so far!
Sincerely Gina, Kim and Zach |
