Another Year, Another Crazy Party. As well as some photography,  I provided an Upcylcled xray viewer into a street sign backlight  photographic installation. A Night of Art & Sharing

Ontario Education Tour The tour started in beautiful Haliburton and it's fall landscapes. Fleming College welcomed me in to teach Historical Process. In other words Old School photography. Way back, old school... On the agenda. Cyanotypes, Van Dyke Browns & one of my favorite's Wet Plate Ambrotypes. All this mixed in with large format photography. The next leg was with my franco-ontarien friends at RÉFO (regroupement des étudients franco - ontarien). Four dates, four different cities ( Collège Glendon, UOttawa, Université Hearst, Collège Boréal) bring the team of Mique Michelle  (Graffiti Arts), Aimée  (Mixed Media) & Myself (photography), to campuses in Toronto, Ottawa, Timmins and Sudbury. Here I got a chance to play with some Poloroid art with Lazor print transfers. The idea being, to merge new and old photographic techniques. All the while,  sprinkled in these dates and ending this semesters off at  École Secondaire Publiq...

Holidaze Party Series started off with a BANG at the Matahari Loft. Keep your ear to the ground for upcoming dates. Whispers of Valentine's Day being the next... for now check what this opening edition had to offer.

What will they think of next... Very cool and ambitious project.  To show my support and help out, I photograph they're fund raiser. Burlesques, Fire Dancers and DJs took over Bain Mathieu in MTL for a party to support the MTL burners project. Best of Luck, Burning Man, be on the look out.

As a participating Artist and Event Photographer, This Party had it all. Dem Burners are all about the love, creativity and respect. Dame Nocturne from Jamie Janx Johnston on Vimeo . Photography, Video & Stencil Projection

Building everything in a cold winter barn and installing it for 3 weeks in Confederation Park in Ottawa. Another success with families, kids and adults getting in on the fun...
