I love it when I get to photograph weddings for people I knew in high school. It always a mini reunion for me. This wedding was particularly special to me since it was the third Partyka wedding I have been able to be involved with. It was also bittersweet since Janet and Ed are out of children to marry off, it was the last. Emily and Adam, it was a beautiful wedding.
If you are going to the Granville Fireworks at Wildwood Park, stop by our photo booth for a FREE family photo. The first 200 kids to get their picture taken receive a free t-shirt. You will get a print mailed to you and the photos go up online for voting. The family with the most votes wins a FREE Family Portrait Session. The goofier the better for these pictures. We will have props and signs there for you. I'll let you know what the voting site is on Saturday. See you there!
Please join us for another wonderful Final Friday in Downtown Newark! After you see Stan's artwork please stay intown to check out the other galleries, stores, restaurants, and antique shops.
The figure in sculpture has been done and is done. It is not new. Indeed, it goes back to the earliest archaeological traces of the human representational endeavor. As an object of contemplation, perhaps its day has passed. Still it endures.
The figure is a form, and a curious one at that. It is a form that elicits a response, an appreciation, even when created by some culture, some people or some language which might be non-existent today. It is a form that is most readily comprehended. Unlike a geometric form, the figure is not precisely defined. Its effectiveness lies in the fact that it is, by nature, only partially defined. It is never complete. It is always open ended, an invitation to something more.
