A time to move on - photogravure print - The Weekly EditionThere is a story here for those who want to let one in. It is a tale we likely all know about in our own way. Love and loss, moving on to something better. maybe a new life in a faraway country with many promises, maybe a new lover with a tender heart. That stark moment of clarity strikes and leaves us waiting. This hand pulled photogravure print is made with Charbonnel carbon black, raw sepia, and warm sepia inks with a dash of Charbonnel sanguine

especially in the forest

intriguing

with a bit of  Charbonnel sanguine ink on Hahnemühle copperplate paper

The portraits are as much about me as they are about the sitter

I set these tulips up in my bedroom one day when I really wanted to do some photography and my kids were at school

I can remember being disappointed that pomegranate jelly was not in the store or in the kitchens of any of my friends

for better or worse

This is what I love about architects and what they do for all of us

I sometimes think I should be finished making work in this place

I set this bunch of pomegranates and persimmons on the window sill and made a negative with my 8x10 camera

A well made portrait can also be an important object for other people in your life

I notice the gestures they make and the ways they change as they age I am drawn to them
