To say that Jonathan Kozowyk’s website design is understated would be pretty accurate IMO but his photography is anything but.
There’s no photo of Jonathan, no backround on him, no mission statement, no crap. Just digital images of his subjects, a telephone number and an email addy.

Don’t forget about Thursday night’s handbag auction with proceeds going to Gloucester and Rockport sailing programs.

Here’s Joe Brancaleone with one of his latest long board creations. This board has lights underneath the board which make it outlandishly cool. If I were coordinated enough to get on a skateboard, I’d be all over it!

You just gotta love all the young creative people in our community. We are so incredibly blessed to have the creative scene that we do. People like Emile, Mike and Tom making short films, the gang at The Hive, the artists recording music downstairs at CABI just to name a tiny few. Then you have the photographers like Mark Teiwes and Ernie doing their edgy stuff. We have Rob Newton who is fully committed to bring us great movies at Cape Ann Community Cinema, the list goes on and on and on….
Keep it fresh y’all and thank you.

When stopping downtown as I try to do every morning to get my coffee and get the scoop from Janice at headquarters (The Cormorant Shop) I saw Virginia Townsend zipping across the street with a lobster platter and bowl.
Lobsters- art- ding ding ding! Blog Material!
