Well, it turns out I’ve been selected by the Smithsonian a lot more times than I knew. They have published dozens of photos of mine going back several years.
From people to places, artists to architecture, I’ve been included in their showcase with images from around the world and across cultures. From photos in Honolulu, to New Orleans, Paris and as far as the Swiss Alps, the Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest and their online magazine continue to showcase my work.
The hippo image below — featured in the Smithsonian Magazine as their photo of the day — is one of many from my time at the Honolulu Zoo, where I have been an intermittent Artist-In-Residence over the years. With an all-access pass, I’ve been fortunate to roam the park and get behind-the-scenes footage of the exhibits, the events, the creatures, and the culture.
The Smithsonian Magazine featured the images below for an article on Paris and another on music, and I am grateful to be a repeat artist in their hallowed pages — even if those pages are digital now.
