Hi Paul, Thank you for blogging about my work. I really appreciate it. New photographs debut at Foley Gallery (www.foleygallery.com) in NY. The title of the show is, "New Releases". This time around, the pulp novels that have been manipulated and photographed visually touch upon varying aspects of lust and desire. The opening reception is January 11th, 2007. A similar show opens at Thomas Barry Fine Arts in Minneapolis sometime in April (still awaiting details). Tom (Thomas) Allen
