We whipped Stone Four Studios into great shape for ARTvision-7. HUGE, mad props to our hanging-party volunteers: Delia Cochran, Randy Chumbley, Kimber Herndon, Vicki Duke Proano, Jim Hayes and Michael Baker, among others. Our electricians, Ron Nelson and Mike Davis, put in major work to make the event happen, too. Have a look below at our photoshow as we got the studio ready for the big two-day event:

Monday,03 December 2012 Filed in: photography

Just Loaded: "Alchemy" by Delia Cochran

In a bold return to ARTvision, Delia Cochran offers “Alchemy” - a moody, magical and emotional work of photography shot in Dahlonega, Ga.
“Being able to donate a photograph to Positive Impact knowing that all the funds raised make a difference in the life of someone is a fulfilling way to make a small impact,” she says.
This piece was framed by previous ARTvision Artist JD Isaacs at Rose Squared Gallery & Framing in Decatur, an ARTvision sponsor. (more)
