Great finds located and bought at a local Cape Cod library book sale for Sue's upcoming photography tribute show, "Rock and Bone," August 2nd opening.

I have read a LOT about Georgia O'Keeffe, especially when I found a load of books about her life, at a  Cape Cod library book sale last year. Went back to the same sale this year, and found some fantastic info on one photographer she really liked, Paul Strand, and then, an Ansel Adams calendar reprint  of Alfred Stieglitz,, sitting at a desk,  in An American Place, Alfreds famed gallery, where Georgia"s work was the main show, in NYC. ( A painting of O'Keeffe's  can be seen on a wall in front of him. ) The Ansel Adams reprint  is dated 1938. The book on  Paul Strand, a pioneering  photographer that Georgia admired, focuses on his career as a innovative pioneer of photography, and has a few pictures of Ghost Ranch Country. He was invited to Georgias Ghost Ranch home many times. For color, I bought a 1961 color printed book,"Flowers of the Southwest Deserts." I then found an old  stamp book from National Audubon Society called "Desert Life." I am so delighted!!! It took a few hours to dig these old books up, but was worth every minute. All will be located near the "Rock and Bone" photography tribute show, for your enjoyment! See you at the opening of my new show," Rock and Bone" at Sharon Crutes Gallery, 73 Beekman Street, Saratoga, Friday, August 2, 2013! 6-8 PM.

Sue's new photography show," Rock and Bone: A Photography Tribute to Georgia O'Keeffe's Ghost Ranch Country" has been delivered to Sharon Crute's Gallery!!! for hanging!!!

I am SO excited to announce, that my Georgia O'Keeffe photography tribute show has been delivered to Sharon Crutes Gallery at 73 Beekman Street in Saratoga!   www.sharoncrute.com   The enlarged photos pf Ghost Ranch Country, and Ghost House, where Georgia first stayed, upon discovering her favorite New Mexican Ranch,  has been printed in full, luscious colors! We are the ONLY Georgia O'Keeffe tribute show,  South of the Hyde Museums current Georiga O'Keeffe show, or for that matter, anywhere in Saratoga!!! I can't thank pro photo lab,  www.photoimageslab.com    Photo Images, and Abby, enough! Also, my framer, Rob, created the right look for the many pictures of Georgia O'Keeffe that will be on display beside my photography work, at Sharon Crutes Gallery.  Mike Bray, Sharons hubby, will be the one  to hang the show, then they are off to the Saratoga Track, where Sharon will be located everyday, offering to the public any of her beautiful, equine track paintings.
