This photograph evolved from a found ball of wire which looked like a human head. I subsequently added a black torso to the head resulting in a classic head and shoulders portrait. I later made a digital bow tie in Photoshop to spice up the fellow's look. After a few weeks in this spiff state, the wireman gained arms and legs and the ability to adjust his bowtie, with hands photographed wearing skeleton gloves. Lastly, I photographed some googly eyes, which served as buttons for his shirt and as a symbol of awareness.
Thus the title "Work In Progress" referring to the human state.
Engaged in photography and art for 50 years, appreciating assignments, welcoming collaboration, enjoying new work all the time. Have been told I am good with people and that I am creative - always good to hear.
