My creative life in a few short sentences.

My creative life in a few short sentences.
I picture myself in old age, listening to the stories of strangers…
“You know how to eat, why you dunno how to study??!!”
“Hey, look, I just painted this…”
My two little kids looked at the picture on my phone. It was of a painting I just completed.
Girl: “It’s just grass.”
I laughed.
Boy: “I’ll buy it.”
Me: “Cool. How much will you pay?”
I was once obsessed with the idea of achieving natural-looking expressions. How do I get people to smile and laugh naturally? How do some photographers get such amazingly relaxed and natural poses that don’t look like poses?
