I've been tracking several leads for portraits in this series. Hopefully, some of the trails will pan out into finished work. In the meantime, I'm stitching on Foreigner and From Preaching to Teaching. While I work, I think about future projects....like places to which I could submit this series for an exhibition. I've sent a few proposals already....but I'll send more...until the work gets a proper show! I've also been thinking of new portraits.....like:
On Fighting Cancer I, II, II, IV.
On Aging I, II, II, IV, V.
Smoker
Draft Dodger
Thinner
Letting Go
Unfaithful
Enhanced
etc. etc. etc.
For more information, please just visit the Decision Portrait blog....I'm looking for all these people. I can work long distance with anyone who has Internet access. I'm open to new ideas, modifications on any of the themes, etc.!

I looked over your list, and I didn't see one about living with addiction; as a parent who has a child that has an addiction problem it is a constant source of worry/grief. I'd love to work with you on something to this effect, if you'd like.
ReplyDeleteLove this series! Another suggestion from a personal situation: letting a developmentally delayed child live in a foster home.
ReplyDeleteI have a developmentally delayed child... Letting them live in a foster home? I don't even understand that. But there is a situation that has a lot of possibilities for you. Why not contact a DD person and see what they think?
ReplyDeleteJust to add: It isn't that I don't understand why you would let a developmentally delayed child live in a foster home. There must be 100 reasons. It's just how do you LET them? I thought that was something that the court FORCES you to do. Feel free to enlighten me, anyone.
