MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY MODEL INSPIRED THE PICTURES IN MY BOOK. SHE ALLOWED ME TO BE AS CREATIVE AS I WANTED. I WOULDN’T EXPECT SOMEONE WHO IS 90 REARS OLD TAKE THE RISKS TO PRODUCE THIS BOOK.
“ I CAME UP WITH THIS STYLE OF PHOTOGRAPHY AS A FORM A SELF EXPRESSION WHICH WORKED BETTER FROM THEN WORK WITH PAINTS ALONE. I TRY USE PHOTOGRAPHY TO EXPAND WHAT I CREATED AS A PAINTER. “
“ I EXPRESS MYSELF THROUGH LIGHT COLOR AND EXPRESSION. I SEEM MODEL AS ART OBJECT. I DRESS COLOR AND STYLE THE MODEL TO SKETCHES I HAVE MADE ON PAPER THEN I ALLOW THE HUMANITY OF THE MODEL TO COME INTO PLAY. “
IN MY CREATIVE PROCESS THE STORY COMES FIRST BUT I FIND AS I WORK THE CONCEPT CHANGES AS I WORK. I OFTEN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THINGS THAT HAPPEN DURING THE SHOOT. THAT IS WHAT I LOVE ABOUT TAKING PICTURES.
“ TRUST WHAT YOUR HEART TELLS YOU. “
I FOLLOW WHAT MY HEART TELLS ME. I GUESS THAT IS MY VISION.
