Art And Fear
I feel like i have written a billion posts that talk about luck and opportunity. It isn’t luck or opportunity that has created this portfolio or the images. It has been blood, sweat and tears that make these images. MIne…and the people I get to work with. Sometimes I choose to reach out to them. Sometimes they choose to reach out to me. Either way, it doesn’t matter. It is the process that draws an artist to the canvas of choice. With photography, people are drawn to what they want to create, how they want to be seen, the desire to be something than the skin and frame we are confined to…
Like a moth to the flame, there are some people that just have to create. I choose a camera. Others choose paint, pencils, chalk, rock, wood, dirt, machines, their bodies. We choose to create together. Some times all i do is make sure the exposure is correct and let my subject run the show. Let them create the magic with in the viewfinder. Let them create art within the space I try to confine them in for just that moment…
Art and fear…
