Shown here is one of two pieces on display in "12x12" the current exhibit at The Art Center, Highland Park. This is the fourth year in a row that we have been accepted into this juried fine art exhibition.

Although this image was conceived and executed as a fine art piece, this is the type of work that Highland Park Photographer Robert Tolchin produces on a commission basis.

Imagine.

You can become a work of art.
