Remember when everyone thought digital technology would replace traditional creative crafts?

It certainly changed them—but it didn't eliminate them.

Over the years I've watched photography, printing, and graphic arts become increasingly digital. Yet today, more people are shooting film, making prints by hand, building things in workshops, and embracing creative processes that require patience and skill.

In my latest blog post, The Reverence Never Left: Photography, Printmaking, and the Search for Authenticity, I reflect on why these practices continue to resonate and what they reveal about our desire to create something real in an increasingly virtual world.

I'd love to hear your thoughts. Have you returned to an older craft, hobby, or creative process that feels more meaningful than its digital equivalent?

From analog darkrooms to AI disruption, a fine art photographer traces how film, printmaking, and the maker movement keep the reverence for craft alive.

I just finished working on a new blog post that revisits several older posts, a workshop, and a presentation I made on creativity at the Ward Museum. This post is titled, "I'm not here to play." I'd love for you all to take a look. I'll post a link in the comments. In other news, I sold a couple prints today! The buyer kept telling me that I need to have a show of my work. Perhaps, it is time to think about doing another one.

I don’t know if you all remember the metal pictures I made of the Indian River Bridge 10 years ago. I’ve added that work to my website under Projects.

I also discuss that project (and others) in a blog post I call The Crucible, which ties together my earlier work, health challenges, and how my practice is evolving.

Fine art photographer Andy Gordon reflects on a decade of chronic pain, the practice of mindful focus, and how struggle shaped work that asks harder questions about truth, erasure, and what survives.

I've been thinking about Plato's allegory of the cave — the idea that we can spend our lives mistaking shadows for reality without ever knowing it. I'm not the first artist drawn to those shadows. But this feels like the beginning of something I need to explore.

I just finished my latest project. The base for the project is the cyanotype process. I've shattered glass and made hundreds of these images to get to the final 16. Time to move on to the next project.

Broken is a cyanotype derivative work responding to irreversible political change. Glass fragments — captured as memory rather than object — hold the condition of a moment that cannot be undone. Limited edition of 30.

I’ve been working on this project since the beginning of the year. It’s my artistic contribution to current affairs.

The Cost of Lies
2026 | Encaustic on Panel

This work is made through repeated acts of correction. Each image begins with the word lies, mechanically printed and embedded beneath layers of wax. The surface is then carved, crossed out, and obscured—gestures drawn from the visual language of redaction, censorship, and fact-checking. The word never fully disappears, remaining as a trace beneath the surface.

Wax records every intervention, holding damage in place rather than concealing it. The marks read less as edits than as scars, emphasizing that acts of correction carry weight and consequence. As in my ongoing practice—including Erasure and Fact/Fake—the work resists clean resolution, pointing instead to what remains after repeated attempts to repair meaning.

Making some test prints and considering a much larger print. The one on the left is 308-gsm Hahnemuhle PhotoRag (matt) and the right is 315-gsm Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Baryta (high-gloss). They look almost identical but I think the matt surface accentuates the charcoal dust … it almost looks like the charcoal is laying on top of the paper. The glossy one looks amazing as well. I’ll live with both for a while before deciding. Let me know if you’d like an artist proof of this image. The title of the print is Erasure.
