Family of Three
/There is such a special sweetness in being able to photograph a new family of three.
Christina's World
/As I walked up the side of a mountain in Antigua, I captured a photo of this bicycle in the grass, looked down at the image in my view finder and said, "Christina's World, ~Andrew Wyeth."
Again, so thankful to my high school art teacher for the lessons in art history.
Happy Birthday Miss Gerhard
/Messing around with a new font and quickly felt the need to give it a Piet Mondrian flare. I thought, wouldn't it be funny if his birthday was today. Turns out, he died 76 years ago tomorrow. Close enough, I suppose.
This in turn, made me think of my Art History lessons. While my high school didn't offer Art History, I was in a small advanced oil painting class with about five others. Coincidentally, each of us in that class were all serious about furthering our college studies in the arts, so while we painted, our art teacher, Jane Gerhard, took it upon herself to feed us information about art history. This was not in the syllabus, but we were sponges to it. I remember it clearly.
The position of the artist is humble. He is essentially a channel. ~P. Mondrian
Huh. Getting ready to post this, and just remembered, while it's not Mondrian's birthday, guess who's birthday it is today? Happy Birthday Miss Gerhard! (So strange.)
Celebrating 15 Years
/This morning, I find myself sitting behind my desk grateful for 15 years in business. I am filled with thankfulness and gratitude to those who have entrusted in Silverbox over the years, and cannot thank you enough. Here’s to 15 more!
Happy 20/20
/“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.” ~R. Dahl
What a Beauty
/This gal has to be one of the most beautiful people I’ve ever photographed. The camera loved her. She’s the daughter of an old high school friend, so our visit and session was extra special. All the best to Makenna, as she heads off to college in 2020.
We're Back!
/We are back from vacation with holiday cards stacked a mile high. If you ordered, they're most likely here, and will be shipped tomorrow. If you're picking up, simply call the studio before coming in to make sure someone is here.
And...if you haven't ordered Silverbox Holiday Cards yet, you can visit us here.
We thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for keeping us busy little elves each and every holiday season.
Out of Office
/We kindly interrupt your busy autumn to advise you that Silverbox will take pause and recharge the soul under the sun, while floating on turquoise water for ten days (Nov 1-10). We’ll be out of reach, and ask for your patience upon our return. We will then do our very best in catching up with all of your needs in a timely fashion. Thank you.
