photo of Shelter by Don Brewer

Don Brewer says, Shelter has stuck in my mind, I went back twice to see the cyanotypes and experience the deep blue. The color stirs thoughts of science, spirituality, and inspiration. The compositions add layers of memes and memories to the blissful peace of cyan blue. 

This is a fabulous show. Don't miss walking into Tamsen Wojtanowski's cyanotype world. You can still see it. Closes November 22.

A number of the paintings on this site are attempts to explore my response to that place and its temporal resonance.
