grandpop's

My grandfather is 93 years old. He lives on his own. he is an amazing man.

Last month he fell and fractured his spine. He's already up and running again. amazing.

while he was in rehab and in the hospital i was there everyday. when he returned home, i was there everyday until he told me not to be.

i started to see these things in his home, things that i saw everyday                                                                                                               when i grew up there and the new    things he's acquired since my grandmom has passed. 

i realized a couple things; i remember these things differently, even after seeing them the same day. and that these things will not be there forever.

my grandpop is my strongest artistic influence.  and now i want to try to start to capture the art that is in his home. the art that IS his home.

here are some of my first test shots.
