✨Featured Artist of the 2026 Fall Showcase✨
Jeff Smith was born in Georgia and moved to Arizona at the age of ten. Inspired by his father, he picked up his first camera at age five and has spent most of his life photographing the Arizona landscape.
Jeff earned an art degree from Pima Community College, where he studied under acclaimed Chicano-American photographer Louis Carlos Bernal. His fine art photography has been exhibited at the Tucson Museum of Art, Etherton Gallery, Canyon Ranch, JW Marriott Tucson Starr Pass Resort & Spa, and Miraval Arizona Resort & Spa. His work also appears in numerous public and private collections.
For more than thirty years, Jeff has pursued lightning across the Sonoran Desert, conservatively spending the equivalent of more than five years of his life there at night.
His lightning photography encompasses two categories. Iconic Landscapes capture the experience of being in the right place at the right time, catching a fleeting hue of light and the emotion of a storm. Drivescapes explore the way motion and light tell the story of nighttime travel. Variations in color, stitched light patterns, patchwork imagery, and splinters of time come together to create a visual travelogue of monsoon life.
Join us this Labor Day weekend and explore exceptional fossils, minerals, and natural history treasures at a relaxed pace — enhanced by 4 talented local artists🎨

Sometimes it’s nice to go a little south of the city of Tucson and spend an hour in a storm!

After a long, unexpected hiatus, I will be back soon!

Another four months until the monsoon storms come. I'll wait!
