Temple Coffee on 9th Street in downtown Sacramento is my workplace away from work when I need a break from the 50% gray cube farm that is my usual office environment. It's also my favorite place downtown to meet friends and visit over a cup of the best espresso in town. The high ceilings, generous natural light, and beautiful hardwood tables are a perfect setting for putting in the earbuds and catching up on email or doing a little image processing. It's also a nice setting for displaying artwork, which they do on a rotating basis every couple of months. Most of the work is by local artists who frequent the cafe or have a connection with the staff in some way.

Speaking of, I've been invited to display my prints at Temple for the months of December and January. We'll hang the show on December 13th, and we're hosting a casual reception on the evening of the 14th from 6-8 p.m. We'd love to see you there.
