One of my favorite people stopped by yesterday and the photos are fire!
Scooby always has her hair a different way when she comes by, which gives each shoot with her it's own distinct edge.

Insignia
Pledges
Bloody wings
For bloody
Pursuits
Dapper

For the rest
So fashionable
An oily mess
But the kids eat it up
Exclamation mark
The sensible

Truth
Be told

The kids
Eat it up?

Hedonistic
Whims
Partake a grande
Tour
Through
Cortex of memories
All folded
Away
To keep clean
Pristine
And dust free
Why remember
The loud riffs of
Vomit stains
When vague
Clouded memories
Get you by.

I thought I had to be serious to get anywhere. Why be serious when ludicrous is so much more interesting. Does art need to have meaning? Must we be angry all of the time? I once did a series on drinking. A professor was incensed. I think he thought it too optimistic.

New artist statement as rewritten and presented by my new va. I am in love!!! She just gets it!

It's nigh-on time for a reinvention. Sometimes I miss the drug fueled parties of the 80s. Mostly for the crazy conversations and sense of being part of a large creative community. A lot of things sucked so bad but there was always something in common with others to connect about. That's what I want

I've decided to start signing my prints with my Brasilian name of Henrique Luis. It'll be a slow rebrand online, a quicker one in RL.
Would love to hear your thoughts about this!
To me it's about taking full ownership of my work.

Stand
Sit
Stay for
A while
Listen to strung along
Words
From long ago
Thoughts to
Bare
That tend to hide
Feel your presence
Touch and
Enlighten
Personal problems
Need not
Surface
Instead breath
With me
And tell me
About your day.

Every once in a while. My lighting came from one of these. I wanted to try out a simplified lighting setup. It was perfect!! This image gave me the confidence that it was the way to go. I was playing around with capturing motion as blur and kept thinking about using that lighting for my main series.

So when I was a wee Marc Manchester, plastic model kits were all the rage. One brand really caught my imagination. Aurora. To me the best part was that they gave absolutely no shits about any prehistoric timelines. Allosaurus fighting a sabre tooth tiger? Sure why not🤣🤣🤣

Cherchez la femme.
Sounds so romantic to me. But then I learned that it's pretty derogatory. Blaming women for mysteries and problems.
I can pretty confidently say fuck that noise. If you have problems search yourself first. Don't jump to blaming women.

Shadows
Play
Upon
Light's cascade
Dappled meadows
Call
To picnic
Enthusiasts
Who
Hound like
Slobber
And salivate
Just at the thought of
Visual cues
The kindness
Of light upon dark.
