Photography gave him the same creative focus he’d always had, but with a different kind of freedom. He didn’t have to stay inside, working on a canvas.

We photographers are romantic types, often bearing outsized dreams. Yet, I stubbornly entered this foray. But why? What would motivate me to tackle such a project? A Zen-like parable circulates among university art departments, describing two pottery classes held in one semester.
