Did you shoot those with film or digital? they are so vivid it makes me think of the good days of shooting chrome film. You have a great eye for your photography. thanks again for the comment and have a great day!

I've seen your work almost everywhere! You are doing a great job!

Wierder still is that I worked in the display shop at Palais Royal in 1980. Three of us did all the nitty gritty part of display for all 20something stores. And I bought 15 mannequins by out bidding the usual purchaser by $1.00 a piece! What a deal!!!!

I still shudder around Christmas time from the frenzy I experienced at Palais R. around that time.

Good skill in preparing for you show. You can probably do it in your sleep!

Ciao- J

It was a pleasure to meet you at the Art Car Museum today! I know your show will be a hit. I absolutely love your work, and look forward to the opening!

If you like KPFT FM 90.1, by all means join our "friends of" group here on artshouston.ning! Just promoting great stuff that makes Houston such a cool place despite those distant high school impressions!

Once again, a pleasure!

Peace- John Linden

PS Alicia Duplan also has a page on this site! J

I use some of Lomo's telescopes before but never did I know about their fun plastic photographic equipment/toy.

Diana - Holga classic. 180degree fisheye, almost pull the trigger to buy... but this ringflash thing is soooooo cool!

I will find out if EOS can somehow use it. Even if at manual setting... with duct tape. 50mm II f1.8 was made for something like this.

At 10:35pm on January 13, 2008, Michael Arcieri said…: Hey Marilyn,
Thanks for the positive feedback about my work. I would agree with you that there are regional, as well as dialect differences within Louisiana. I met as many transplants as I did locals along with transient grifters. I can’t say that my experience was neither all good nor all bad, as I ran into both. Those who were the 'salt of the earth' who accepted me like family and remain my friends till this day, and the other St. Chas provincial types who would have been much more interesting if they weren’t so busy “being from” New Orleans. I love the city and have roots there in the Carrollton District on my mother’s side. It’s a very cloistered group down there and the opportunity was thin, so I picked up and left in 1999 avoiding further economic hardship. Hope to see more of your work here. Thanks again!

At 11:30pm on January 12, 2008, ShauLin Hon said…: Yes, you are right.

I have never play with toy camera, although I have heard and seen wonderful stuffs from people that swear by Holgas... and now the toy lens Lensbabies...

I will definately go look at the links you recommended. Thanks.
