As someone who is going back to school to become an Art Educator, I really enjoyed hearing about his teaching experiences. Thanks for such an interesting interview!
Many thanks for that one. The question about why to tell a story and what my story is, is one of the biggest questions in my photografic life for now and I think also in the future. Some of my thoughts are public in my blog "Purpose Statement".
