On Beautiful Women and Modeling

It's no secret that I love women; as an artist , they are the single most beautiful subject that God created.  I enjoy meeting these lovely ladies, particularly the ones that I have had the pleasure to illustrate.  To most of us , they are just images, but when you finally meet, you realize that they are real people, like you...they just happen to look better than most!


I recently hosted an industry get together, and was very pleased that it was attended by Rachel Jay, Christie Gabriel & Jennifer Bollinger (That is Jennifer seen in the accompanying art), along with entrepreneur Alfred E Shirtman.  It was a truly wonderful evening -- a lot of industry talk, gossip, laughs, and a dissection of scenes from "Ferris Bueller's Day Off").  

The truly cool thing for me is to see these ladies in a relaxed setting, away from cameras, lights, etc, just being themselves.  Often people ask what celebrities are 'really like.' Models and photographers are my celebrities, and I can tell you, they are really like...you and me.  


I can't tell anyone enough how much I enjoy meeting people in our industry, and learning about them, how they approach their jobs.  This even I hosted is a semi-regular event, and I look forward to the next one with great anticipation.
