Where does one take his or her art. I know artists who meticulously plan the arc of their work, like campaign strategists; many of them are highly successful.

I have always been prone to follow some, as yet unseen map, allowing myself to be taken down dark paths, along fast moving rivers, or, at times into a meditative place. This work is all three. Yet, I find myself doing ‘post production’ strategizing; where will I show the photos, who might help me make them public, and of course, the joy and bane of most artists, how will I sell them?

I invite all responses to these questions. In the meantime, I travel on, currently in San Antonio, Texas and soon in Big Bend National Park.
