Regardless Of Whether You Speak The Language

I Always Enjoyed Art History Because, Growing Up In California, My Exposure Was Limited, And It Was A New Experience. To Learn The History Of Art Opened Up Certain Things To Me, Made Me See. It Intrigued Me.

I'm Pretty Selective. I Generally Edit The Contact Sheets And Then Do Work Prints. Because I Have My Own Lab And Printers, I Can Afford The Luxury Of Going Through The Contact Sheets For Black-and-white, Making Up Work Prints, Seeing Them Big, And Honing Them Down.

To Me It's Just Going For The Moment That Counts. Sometimes, I'll Have All The Elements There, And I Like To Play And Push Something, And To Me, In The End, You Do Achieve Things That You're Not Aware Of In The Beginning, Even Though You're There Trying To Get Them.

And What Excites Me Most Is The Type Of Public, The Fact That The Parisian People Have A Broader Cultural Understanding Than Many Americans Do.

The Education, The Cultural Awareness, Is Different In Europe, Especially In France, From That In The United States. So I Think The Public Will Be Much More Appreciative Of Many Images.
