In 2007, Becky Hendrick publicly --- in a multi-part art work, of course --- "retired from the practice of Art," capital A. Since then, she has continued to explore many creative arenas, and photography is one of them: where she used to MAKE pictures, she now TAKES pictures. Using a simple automatic camera set on the most basic setting, looking and locating compositions in her day-to-day world has become a major part of her art, lower case "a." She considers herself to be an amateur, but her pictures show that walking and looking --- undisturbed and solitary --- reveal that art-worthy imagery is everywhere.

An online search of her name will lead you to websites and videos demonstrating her wide-ranging Art and art, writing, performance, and other creative endeavors.
