Untitled (Memory Pods project) copyright 2016 Douglas Stockdale I have been rephotographing some of my memory pod subjects with film and just realized a very inexpensive creative tool; when processing my film at ProPhoto (Irvine, CA), for just a small bit more, I can obtain a medium resolution scan of each image.

Fiuggi Passage Way 2010 copyright Douglas Stockdale When Art Photo Index (API) was launched a few years back, I was provided with an invitation to join, which I immediately accepted.

Tracks (Roadside Remembrance series) copyright 2016 Douglas Stockdale - Earlier this month I had a mini-exhibit at Photo Independent (Los Angeles) and subsequently posted that due to some really good feedback, that I was going to radically alter the direction of one of my in-process projects. So a little bit about that today and not that... Continue Reading →
Pine Lake, self-published artist book, copyright 2013 Douglas Stockdale I am really stoked and honored to announce that my artist book Pine Lake was just featured in SilverShotz magazine; Volume 10, Edition 8 (May 2016).
