Artists for a Lifetime
I am still very much in love with what I do and am fascinated by the alchemy of what drives people to a lifetime of making art. Over the past 15 years, I’ve set out to capture some of those truths through photographs of accomplished artists with many years inscribed in their being – visual artists, writers, performance artists, musicians – whose unflinching commitment to their work bespeaks the bewitching pull of the creative life.
