Start date: Friday, October 23, 2009
Event is ongoing: Until Saturday, November 21, 2009

Sun to Moon Gallery is proud to introduce works to the Dallas/Fort Worth area by two talented photographers that expand upon the artistic styles offered by the gallery.

Alison Shaw is an award-winning fine art and editorial photographer who has lived and worked in Martha’s Vineyard since 1975. The island has provided the inspiration and subject matter for much of her photography. Her colorful, contemporary, and organic prints are visually stunning, beautiful to behold and unique relative to our other photographers’ print styles. Very friendly to collectors and non-collectors alike, Shaw’s vibrant prints hang easily in contemporary spaces. Many books featuring her photography have been published and over 8,000 of her original fine art prints are in public and private collections. Alison also teaches photography workshops in the U.S. and throughout the world.

The photographs of Dallas photographer Dick Washburne have appeared regularly in D Magazine since 2005. He also publishes travel stories alongside his photography in both D and the Robb Report and presently shoots Major League Baseball games for D Magazine’s sports blog, Inside Corner. Washburne has studied the craft of photography and fine print making with some of the finest photographers in the world, but credits his time with master photographer Joel Meyerowitz as transformative. As a result, many of Washburne’s fine prints evoke the best aspects of “street photography” and Sun to Moon Gallery is excited to introduce his fine prints to the DFW market.
