We received a very large shipment of Canvas Gallery Wraps today. I have been planning for several new displays around the studio to highlight various ways to display multiple images. When the holiday rush subsided I was able to spend a couple of days designing some new looks. Often times clients are interested in displaying… Continue Reading
It is Auto Show week here in Detroit. Cobo Hall is hosting the 24th Annual North American International Auto Show. So I thought it would be a fitting tribute to photograph the pride of Denmark’s Automotive heritage.
