Pacifica, CA
One-man artwork and photography show featuring 31 original pieces
Jean Bartlett, Arts Correspondent for the Pacifica Tribune, quotes Ekkens on 9/10/08: "Anyone can buy a camera, snap a photo and mount it in a frame. My photos are about creating art from images taken through the lens. I am an artist first, a photographer second, the photograph being the means to the end. I am also the photographer as an artist seeking that end. The result is a creative mix of modern media."
