Cafe Sensual is on display as part of Hotcakes Gallery's "Heartpounder" show from February 11 through March 5, 2006. Opening is February 11, from 6-9pm, continuing as the Valentine's SUPER Party until Midnight. :: I'm making a series of about 20 photos involving the connection and relationship between sensuality and food. For this series, I'm getting stylized food shots (think "Gourmet" magazine covers with wonderfully rich colors and shapes), stylized nude shots (think fragmented body parts), and combinations of the two (e.g., a woman lying on her stomach with a row of apple slices in the small of her back). These will all be shot digitally and in color. I'll be manipulating them in Photoshop, overlaying text from Song of Solomon, and the final output may be in color or black and white, depending on what I do to manipulate it. The series is intended for gallery exhibitions. I've got a studio in which I work but I also have access a few cool locations that I use if the mood strikes me. All of it's in the Milwaukee area. For shoots with nudity involved, I make every attempt to to staff with same-gender assistants and crew to make my models more comfortable. MODEL GUIDELINES: All models must be over 18 and willing to pose nude for the shot. We request that models wear loose fitting clothing for at least two hours before the shoot to elimate marks and lines that elastic and straps may cause on the back. All models must be willing to sign a photo release, and will receive a framed print of any shots selected for inclusion in the series.
