Welcome to Elseworld.com. The Other Place. Elseworld is a community of disgruntled but creative artists so fed up with the real world that they've retreated to the online one to display their work. Conceived by Christopher Maverick and Maximilian in March of the year 2000, the project has adapted over time as their artistic styles have changed and grown. Here you will find not only images of their creation but other media types as well. Welcome to Elseworld. Welcome to the Other Place.

If you're in the Pittsburgh Area, or will be on January 19th, why not check the "Lights" show at the Creative Treehouse. I will be displaying some of my newest photography there and prints will be for sale. I might also have a copy or two of my 365 Days book. Even if you aren't interested in buying anything, I'd love to see anyone out there showing their support to me and the other artists and musicians on the show.
Lights! A Photographic Exploration
Bellevue, PA, January 2nd, 2008 — Lights! is a photographic exploration featuring photographic work from local photographers.

Bodnar, Sarah Higgins, Chris Maverick, Dawn Zacharias, Sarah Hindman, Lucinda Wiebe, Michelle Mitchell, Michael Flaherty, Dustin McGrew, John Altdorfer, Tamara Barker, Christina Labrise , Jeff Zoet, and Marta Heberle.

The long wait is over . . . and you didn't even know you were waiting, did you? Often the best things happen when least expected.
After years of stagnation and decay, the Other Place has just gotten a massive facelift. If you don't remember what it used to look like around here, I'm not going to show you, because it was ugly. But now the Other Place is back, with new art, new artists, new features, and new . . . fonts. Yes, every detail has been completely redesigned and lovingly crafted. We (well, mostly Mav) slaved over a hot laptop for weeks on this thing. So please, poke around and see how you like it, and be sure to check out our lovely and talented new artists, Lauren and Jack.
Look for us when you're lost.
