NEW WEB SHOP
Just in time for the holidays, I've updated my website with a new shopping area where you can by my prints and other photo products. Giclees, Kodak Endura Metallic and Hahnemühle FineArt papers are some of the new print options.
MUSEUM SHOW IN SANTA FE
The Palace Of The Governors Museum in Santa Fe, New Mexico is mounting its first major photography exhibit in 25 years, and your favorite artist, Robert Luis Chavez (ha ha), is included. The show "Through The Lens: Creating Santa Fe" will open November 21 in the west wing of the Palace Of The Governors Museum, from 5-7pm. The opening is open to the public so come on down if you are in Santa Fe, you don't need an invite. The exhibit covers 150 years of photography in Santa Fe and features over 100 photographers, including many who currently live and work in Santa Fe. Through The Lens: Creating Santa Fe coincides with the 400th anniversary of the City Of Santa Fe as well as with the 100th year of the Palace Of The Governors Museum. A book of the same title is also coming out in January. My two lightning pictures shown below are part of the show. For more details, here's the full press release and list of photographers put out by the museum.

PHOTOGRAPHY CLASS AT GHOST RANCH, 2009
Friend and mentor, Kent Bowser, is teaching his forteenth consecutive Jan
term class this year at Ghost Ranch Abiquiu, and your favorite artist, Robert Luis Chavez, is the
assistant this coming Jan term 2009. The class can be taken for college credit,
and we had eleven students last January, two of whom were non-college students.
Last Jan term at Ghost Ranch was marked by record cold temperatures
and freezing water pipes. Still the snow and cold couldn't keep the
class from having a good time and making some great images. There was
always snow and ice on the ground and both feature prominently in most
all of the photos from last year...continued
and more pictures
Kent Bowser continues to teach black and white landscape photography at famed Ghost Ranch in Abiquiu as he has for fifteen years now. Classes for 2009 are continuing, all at Ghost Ranch's upgraded and well maintained darkroom facilities. For a calendar of Kent's classes in 2008/2009, and more of Kent Bowser's photography see Bowser's updated guest pages. Kent also printed the William Parker Little images seen on this site.
2008 PEDICAB SEASON IS ENDING?
I've been driving
a pedicab part time in Santa Fe, New Mexico to make extra money and stay in shape
for my next big photography adventure - whatever that may be. The 2008 season is coming to
an end: once the snow and ice cover the streets it's
too hard to work any more. Here is
a new page that shows if am working today
on the pedicab along with some pedicab
FAQs. So come and take a ride with your favorite artist (ha ha)
when you are in downtown Santa Fe.
