4.23 on 4.22: soul searching with a lens

Pho­tograph­ing Count­down to 4.23 this past week­end wasn’t re­al­ly an op­tion this year. 

It was nec­es­sary be­cause I need­ed to feed my soul. 

The Cre­ative Process can be a bit of a roller coast­er for me but there’s one thing I know for sure; show up for what you love & you will be re­ward­ed one way or another. 

Though I missed out on cap­tur­ing a lot of what was go­ing on out­side of the PHO­TO­STU­DIO where I set up shop … I’m not bit­ter, re­al­ly. There was a pro­pa­gan­da work­shop, a cal­en­dar be­ing print­ed on an old let­ter­press, plus a de Sti­jl-named band called 4 Lines.

What I was sup­posed to ex­pe­ri­ence was com­ing to me in the studio. 

Flom­mists came to get their pic­tures tak­en with Mon­dri­an and Van Does­burg and Ri­etveld. I pho­tographed mod­els wear­ing amaz­ing clothes de­signed by Ger­ry GOS” Simp­son, and then there was Al­ley Schef­f­ki, the hu­man canvas. 

Not to men­tion the great con­ver­sa­tions I had and new friends I met that have be­come a piece of my thread. 

Thanks Mehal­lo, my fluck­ing flom­mist pro­fes­sor for an­oth­er great event. Let’s wing it again next year!
