Reborn

I have always been inspired with people going for their dreams. This past year has been very tough for me, and it all seemed to change this week. All at once. 

After nearly 300+ applications, 7 job interviews, I am proud to announce I have landed a new job. For the sake of keeping this blog about my photography, I will spare you the details, but I will be selling cars, hopefully a lot of cars. So if you are in Cleveland, need a new ride, hit the contact tab at the top of the blog, I will fill you in on the details. 

Secondly, I got a call today that has me really stoked. Since being unceremoniously ripped from the job I had, I have been focused on taking my photography to the next level. I wanted to hopefully build it up to the point where if my unemployment benefits ran out, I had a way to make money until I could get a job. Well this focus has taken me on some sweet trips, awesome experiences, and more importantly made some awesome new friends. 

Well I submitted my work to an art show called RAW. RAW is a nationwide community of artists that are all wanting to make a break of some kind. They want to show their work and are having a hard time finding places that might want to open their doors to show their work. I totally dig people who are unknown and want to break out, so what better way to do that than getting together and highlighting each other. 

Well I am proud to say that I have been booked into the Cleveland show May 30, 2013. What does this mean? It means I have a space to showcase my work for the first time next to other artists. I have a chance to sell my work. I have a chance to make this cool hobby I have to start paying for itself. The only thing I need to do is sell 20 tickets. Totally doable. 

So here are the details. 

RAW: Cleveland
May 30th
The Avenue Taphouse 
18206 Detroit Ave
Lakewood, Ohio 
8pm-1am


There will be dancers, bands, photographers, painters, film makers, fashion artists, make-up artists, and more. I am stoked to see you there!
