Monday morning starts with the fragrant smells of coffee, the screams of children playing in the room and the thought of Austin’s Flying Chihuahua print in transit to the busy city of New York City.  It’s in fact the first online sale to a complete stranger he’s made and its feeling of success f0r a young working 17 year old is victory enough.  It’s set in motion the fierce drive for a young man with a camera to infiltrate the world of bare and boring walls, and dry flat imaginations.  He sits and tinkers with his prints at the computer, making them into bright pieces of candy fun – intuitive, thoughtful and imaginative; daring and inspiring.  He is a thinker, a boy of wonder, a young man of philosophy, and an artist of humanity. I sit and watch his back from behind as he puts in his hours at the computer and think of the imagery that he sees and wonders where it comes from.  It’s a parents pure delight to sit and watch their children quietly, especially when they are beaming.

Now the laundry washes, the barenaked children still screaming and jumping from bed to bed, and we start a new work week. Who and where will the the next package of  photography go…

First online sale on the way to New York City!
