Department of Art

My eyes and camera hold fast to those nearest and dearest to my heart. I hold onto the moments like a madman, the inevitability of loss and the brevity of life nipping at my heels. I hold still the moment as it slips away, making visible this proof of stopping time on film. Love is most necessary, truth glimmers in the twilight and the sweet breath of life goes on.
