By now, I though I’d be further along, organizing and curating a dozen years of work at Cary Ballet Conservatory. The delay is mostly due to the luxury of quiet time and vivid memory. And reflection. An example is this photograph.
Eight years earlier, her Mom hired me to make photographs of her First Communion at the Church Altar. A new and agreeable Monsignor literally gave his blessing to me working during the Mass.
Cary Ballet Company: Space & Tech Rehearsal, 13 March 2019 – Cary Arts Center
One year later, nearly to the day after I made this photograph, there was another Space & Tech Rehearsal for the 2020 production – just days before COVID cancelled pretty much everything. And that Fall, I became a widower.
Things sort of got back to normal by late 2022 – but my “creative spirit” tank was on fumes and I retired.
Now my goal is to share what I learned about Craft and Art. Working on that!
