postcards from the edge
071108 by ewah
postcards from the edge is a program from visual arts that auctions off donated postcards for aids therapy and research. anonymous, unique pieces of art are sold for $75. the last two years i submitted travel stuff, i am still unsold (boohoo) -- but i often use copies of them as my holiday card.
the deadline is today to submit. i've been putting it off for so long and then there was mexico.
last night after spending almost 2 hours making 80 contact sheets from the mexico trip i had a about 20 minutes left. so rushing around i made the above entry.
i've been working around these hand prints for the past 6 months or so. it's a complete departure from the street/travel/festival stuff that i normally shoot. it's also pretty unique (like a fingerprint) and fast go get going.
this doesn't look as good as the 8x10 that i did a few weeks ago, though. the size of the paper seems to be too small. but i love the splatter pattern.
one day i hope to enlarge them to be he height of me. =)

umm...edward, have you been submitting your work to agencies at all? cause if not you need to...or rather you should. and then i think you should be a full time photojournalist. you seem to have a great eye and passion for it. have u thought about it?
