…he’s a sweet little guy, even though he sneakily took his opportunity to get on the sofa when I wasn’t looking (boy, my decor looks busy in this picture!) and I didn’t have the heart to oust him. I’d better watch it or I’m going to become a dog-blogger.

Congrats, Eric! And I love the cyanotype aesthetic. (I had just finished a g&t with Bombay when Eric sent this email!)
Well, I’m still trying to stay the journey with the Brownie Camera and am pleased to have some news to share. Just recently I’ve been selected as featured artist in a global campaign by Bombay Sapphire, the UK gin brand. It came out of the sky..I don’t know who recommended me.
I like that they’re featuring my work, process, and story…vs, “hello. drink gin.” So,w/o further blahblah, here’s how they did it:
“Explore Eric’s mosaic story: BombaySapphire::ericjhenderson::There’s Something Inside This photographer’s story begins with his natural sense of curiosity and wonder. When he bought a camera for $5 on a New York sidewalk, that innate curiosity opened the door to a new passion…”

p.s. my websites are fairly new…I’d appreciate your visit!

(though I don’t know when. Even though I never watch television for educational purposes I can’t wait for this, either—I spoke with director Thomas Allen Harris for the project; don’t know if I’ll make the cut but it looks from this trailer like he’s got a stellar group of interviewees.)
