While working full time at URI, he says, \u201cI started to take classes, enjoyed them, and took more. After about eight years of working nights and taking classes during the day, I graduated with a degree in studio art!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now retired, he enjoys taking photos around South County., R.I. Sherman says, \u201cThis photo was taken at a marina near Charlestown Beach. There is a small bridge there, where I sometimes meet friends in the evenings to take photos of the great sunsets. It\u2019s not just the actual sunset that is so nice, it&#8217;s the changes in the colors of the sky after the sunset.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sherman&#8217;s photos are often featured on the weather segment of the evening news on NBC 10 WJAR (Providence). He belongs to the Wickford Art Association and the South County Art Association and also enjoys painting in acrylics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Calling All Alumni Photographers<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Share your photos with your classmates and fellow Rhody alumni in<\/em> URI Magazine. <em>Send photos, along with background (the story behind the photo), to <a href=\"mailto:urimag@uri.edu\">urimag@uri.edu<\/a> and we will consider all submissions for publication in future issues of<\/em> URI Magazine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Charlestown Dock<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":13603,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[336],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13519","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-summer-2024","architecture-network","architecture-scenic-route"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13519","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13519"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13519\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15248,"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13519\/revisions\/15248"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13603"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13519"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13519"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13519"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
