Artist's Comments

I tried to break the spell--the heavy, mute spell of the wilderness--that seemed to draw him to its pitiless breast by the awakening of forgotten and brutal instincts, by the memory of gratified and monstrous passions. This alone, I was convinced, had driven him out to the edge of the forest, to the bush, towards the gleam of fires, the throb of drums, the drone of weird incantations; this alone had beguiled his unlawful soul beyond the bounds of permitted aspirations.
-Joseph Conrad, Heart of Darkness

Yeah, an old shot. I really, really miss having photoshoots with my family.
This photo is now a book cover for David Grossman's El libro de la gramática interna

Come, hunt with me, the invitation whispers in my heart.
Leave the pain behind and let your life be your own again.
There is a place where all times is now, and the choices are simple and always your own.

This is a beautifully innocent and old-fashioned sort of piece - it has the quiet nobility of a small child engrossed in something about it.

Great shot!

I believe that if someone's creation is not put out in the world without either fervent joy, fierce hope, heartfelt sorrow, or anger at injustice, it is doomed to failure.
