In 2023 my wife and I were invited to be artists in residence at the YMCA of the Rockies, located in Estes Park, CO, surrounded on 3 sides by Rocky Mountain National Park. Our time in residence included several artist run workshops in media such as cyanotype photography, printmaking, embroidery and creation journaling. But in the all the time between those workshops we led, we explored as much of the park and surrounding area as we could. We had a lot of adventures as a family, and below are some of the photos to prove it.
I've also taken my experience from this residency as well as my previous RMNP residency and made a book called "The Rockies Are Calling: an artist family's adventure in Rocky Mountain National Park and YMCA of the Rockies". It highlights some of my favorite spots, hikes and experiences and is filled with my photographic work.
