I'll be teaching photo painting and book making techniques in an upcoming 3 day workshop, July 15-17th at Trolley Stop Antiques in Jacksonville, Oregon. A spot has opened up last minute if you're interested and can make it! Class is limited to 8 students, allowing time for lots of individual guidance. Email me for more information (there's an email link up on the right).

I hiked up to Table Rock yesterday and had the best day! We enjoyed the antics of the squirrels so much. Adorable little faces, and such comical little guys.
The photo below looks a bit like the moon, but it's actually a reflection from a building way down in the valley below. I love how this shot turned out!
I shared my apple with them,
and they posed for me.
Below is the one I've posted on my facebook page for the weekly caption post and monthly drawing that I mentioned the other day -send a friend request if you want to play! Isn't he a ham?
I wanted to let everyone who isn't on facebook (and those who are, but haven't seen it) know that I've started a fun, weekly posting and drawing.
Each week, I'll post a photo that needs a caption or subtitle, and everyone who comments with a caption (or any comment) will be put into the hat for a monthly drawing.
Not sure what I'll give away, but prints and little collage goodie bags are things I'm thinking of as I get started.
The drawing won't be on any specific day because I get so busy that I want it to remain fun and not just another deadline, but I'll post a new photo every Sunday unless I'm gone, and will also post when I have a drawing.
All the names will be compiled for the entire month, then Tulla will draw a name out for the prize. Hope to see you there!
The first one is up on my FB page here: https://www.facebook.com/DJ.Pettitt. If we aren't friends, and you want to play, just send me a friend request...
Wow. Busy busy summer days! Blog posts seem to get put on the back burner lately. I just finished the sample book that I demoed in my Italy workshop. It ended up about 4" thick and is 6" X 9".
I still have more photos from my time in Italy that I would like to share, but haven't gotten back to them yet. Hopefully things will slow down a bit now. Hope you're all enjoying a beautiful June!
