The Pillbug has been selected by juror Paula Tognarelli as a ‘jurors choice’ in the 2020 Patterns and Shadows International call for entry at the New York Center for Photographic Art which included over 900 images submitted.
Patio Life is also exhibiting at 3S Artspace in Portsmouth, NH. The exhibit features over 20 large format reproductions of insects, a 6 foot wide map of where the insects were photographed and the book, Patio Life.
