Tulsa State Fair – 2008
I love groups of people that hold on to something. They are the keepers of the flame.
I like that there is a young woman in the midst of the older women. She will be those women in another 30 years, and will have handed down the clogging tradition to someone much younger. I love that.
Another in my week of portraits. This is a dancer/model from the Tulsa Ballet who posed
for our photo group in the spring of 2008. I don’t know her background, but I see a
real Russian look to her with her eyes and bone structure in particular.
This is an imagined story about the cake seller at the outlet mall with the incredible eyes and the cake she was selling and the TV image of the flamenco dancer that I shot in the Bose store demo movie in the small dark theatre where they showed off their sound systems which I did not buy but I got a number of shots of the screen that I liked and then realized how they fit and imagined a story of love.
