Three Stunning Images From Folsom by Dean Ignacio
11.28.11
Thanks to a chance connection by my friend and trainer Eric Do, we are all treated to the talent of San Francisco college student and avid photographer Dean Ignacio for the first time. His “Folsom” series, mostly black and white but some in color, reveal a humanness of revelers rarely seen in a young photographer. (read more)
Dean says the homeless man in “Adventures in Scavenging” used his shopping cart like a adventure chariot. "He was laid out on the street like rag doll and very complacent of himself, as if the shopping cart was dragging him to places unknown,” he says. “Folsom as 'unknown' is such an understatement and I'm sure he had a lot to scavenge that day."
The “Folsom” series is offered as a collection or individually. $450 for each and $1,200 for the trio. For more details, go directly to Dean’s artist page.

Introducing Photographer Dean Ignacio
10.23.11
San Francisco photographer Dean Ignacio joins ARTvision with three stunning images from Folsom Street Fair. Dean was introduced to us through Eric Do, a fan and good friend.
“Adventures in Scavenging” by Dean Ignacio
“Where’s the Shower Dial?” by Dean Ignacio
“There’s No Place Like Folsom” by Dean Ignacio
All three of these pieces are being framed by ARTvision sponsor Rose Squared Gallery & Framing in Decatur. They will be offered as a collection or individually. More on pricing, sizes and specs coming soon.
Two years ago, Dean created a series of photos taken around San Francisco as a response to the lack of originality the city had been depicted over the decades. Because of its richness of local color, Dean's album became a hit and was warmly (and critically) praised by his friends and peers.
Currently, he is a History of Art major at the University of California, Berkeley with the hopes of becoming a photojournalist or a travel correspondent.

10.20.11
(20 October 2011 - Atlanta) :: Photographer and zoo keeper Vicky Croisant comes to ARTvision as a buyer of one of Julia Murney’s 2010 offerings, “Blooming Coconut.” Her generosity was critical in earning us close to $12,000 in earnings last year; she expressed interest in donating some animal photography for this year’s event. As you’ll see, it’s a good thing we said “yes.”
“Standing Strong” by Vicky Croisant
“Cruisin’ the Pool” by Vicky Croisant
As the Wild Animal Keeper at the Akron Zoo in Ohio, Vicky has unique access to some of the most beautiful and expressive animals on the planet. With “restoreARTive” as our 2011 theme, Vicky chose “Tamarr” (top) and “Aletta” as animal-kingdom examples of how animals can soothe the soul.

Artist Sneak Peek: Gordon Stuedler
10.16.11
(16 October 2011 - Atlanta) :: Photographer Gordon Stuedler comes to ARTvision via Twitter. After I noticed one of his snazzy shots, I clicked over to his gallery and, needless to say, was struck by his vision and sense of composition.
“Palm Lagoon” is one of the best statements of ARTvision-6’s theme, “restoreARTive,” because it embodies an uncomplicated, calm, infinite serenity usually reserved for our imaginations.
“Palm Lagoon” by Gordon Stuedler
“Believe it or not, 'Palm Lagoon' is not a lagoon,” he says. “It is part of a palm grove the morning after a very heavy rainfall. The water in between the palms was probably about 6" deep.”
Stay tuned to this site for more on this piece - including frame details and pricing - as well as more preview pieces very soon. -WP
