Since there’s been zero activity here since the post I put up in February, aside from two spammers trying to sell UGG boots, I’ve decided to pull the plug when the domain registration expires, which will be 5/10/2012

I had hoped to build some sort of online community for people to keep tabs on what everyone else is doing, but it appears Facebook is the only game in town, and it’s what everyone is using these days. I made an effort to try to help get artists around here organized and networked, but it’s just not happening, so this site will soon vanish from the web.

Thanks for giving it a try.

Hello! My name is Sherry Disney and I own a company called Passages. I am a photographer and a video buff. I love seeing other photographers “eye” views. We have such GREAT talent that a lot of people never see because they do not know it’s there. So I decided to change that…..

I am looking for 10 photographers to join together in a “one of a kind” Gallery. I am looking for local photographers who shoot a “different” type of photography. 

The Gallery would of course have displays of your work that you would sell along with studio availability for your use. You would rent your space for $75 a week. This includes your display space in the gallery along with 4 separate studios (3 inside and 1 outside) for your use. You would keep ALL revenues from your sales. Framing and Canvas Art are also available.

We would love to have you on board! Please let me know if you have any questions!

Thank you for your time and interest! You may contact me with your interest, questions, concerns and portfolios at passagesvcd@comcast.net

I’d love to put some of YOUR artwork on the main page, catch the post I put up about that earlier, which is linked in the sidebar.  Just email the properly sized images to me and I’ll put them into rotation here. It’s smart to put your name on the images themselves, so people know who’s work it is.

Thanks-

Steve
