ENQUIRE ABOUT THIS WORK

 

Having a relaxing dinner with Elliott several years ago in New York I confessed to him that this was my favourite image of his. He went very, very quiet. I told him I thought that most men had very complicated relationships with their Fathers. He put his fork down and then he said that this was one of his favorite photos too. I guess we had touched on something very personal to both of us. A special dinner for sure and one I will never forget.
