New wrinkle in my life: A local art gallery owner asked me several months ago to curate a show of photography for her gallery, which in the past has always shown paintings and sculpture.

“A Sense of Place” opens Tuesday, August 4, with a reception at 5:30 p.m. Friday, August 7, at the Karin Clarke Gallery, 760 Willamette St., Eugene. It features work by Oregon photographers Craig Hickman, Brian Lanker, Robin Cushman, Franklin Miller, Dennis Galloway, Annie Frantzeskos and, of course, by yours truly.

It’s been an interesting process working with other photographers to put the show together and, in the end, extremely rewarding to see the work go into the gallery on display.

Stop by if you’re in the area.
