An Artist
"What does it mean "to write well"?
An artist--using the word in its genuine rather than childish meaning-is not a craftsman who knows how to evenly distribute "lively images", "telling details of everyday life", "colorful landscapes", and other trifles in his books; an artist is the one who finds a rhythm unknown before, and enlives and permeates the world he has created by this rhythm."

Micheal Siu-New Orleans
the black rose.
New found fan of Richard Kern and Terry Richardson.
Yes Chip. I think that he got them. Infact he sent me a quick email yesterday and yes we are planning to work together in October which I am very excited about and hope, hope it works out. I do thank you Chip because you were the first to re-introduce me to his work and may be the only reason I was brave enough to contact him.
Kerns work is so raw and he uses plain, reagualar girls...that is the main thing that attracts me to his work. I love the candid, casual, modern feel of it. But yes...it is almost opposite of your style so I can see you kinda likeing some and not others.
I sent photos of you to Terry Richardson a while back. Don't know if he got them or not.
ReplyDeleteI hope so, would love to see how he would photograph you.
Kern, his work is a bit different. Some I love, some, not so much. Would be interesting with you though, on that basis alone.
