Artist Hideout

I used to be a photographer for Olan Mills. One day that I knew was going to be particularly slow, I took my laptop to work and began writing.

I think it was in that moment, I knew that I wanted to write about art as well as just create it.

Anyway, I just found the old pen drive that had these files on it, and I thought I’d share.

It is amazing how time does not stand still even for a moment. At the moment of the flash, time continues to roll on. A single millisecond frozen in time. No contextual reference for this instant can be captured, only the moment. But that moment, forever still and chosen for that image, marks that time in which it is set. The backdrop, more than what you can immediately perceive is the life, the loves, the passions that are displayed in that person. If artistically chosen, or just a plain snapshot captured the art of who that person is. We like the images that do not show us as we are, but as we imagine ourselves to be.
