Tallynn

"Hey, you just missed Lynn."
"Which Lynn?"
"You know, Tall Lynn."

Another of the Utah Death Portraits.  Lynn.  If the person sitting next to you at the Utah doesn't know which Lynn you're talking about all you have to say is Tall Lynn.
Done.

She's not really as tall as the photo suggests but I'm thinking when people walk into her wake, we'll have this as a life size print greeting everybody….maybe add another foot to the print to really emphasize the point.

She doesn't look down on anybody though so this shot doesn't represent that at all.  

And since Lynn is so angelic.  Here she is right after Death and that whole bright light theory thing.

And the Oscar for Best Whiskey Glass commercial goes to…...

Man, I had to do a lot of takes on this one.

Ben's Whiskey Glass

And by the time Henry finished shooting I was a bit tanked, faded, toasted.

Henry's brother was in town awhile back, he's a glassblower living in New Orleans, and the two of them talked me into a drink in the middle of the day.  Quite a few of them actually.  Ben makes these absolutely beautiful whiskey glasses.  He stamps in designs or words in the bottom.  They feel so good in the hand, big bunch of glass at the bottom gives it a perfect heft, a gravity. The slight irregularities from the hand made process can be felt with the fingertips.  The rim is a sensuous delight on the lips.

They wanted a little spot done for Ben's website.  I was their actor dude.

Henry knows me and so there was music playing while we filmed it.  That's where the snapping of the fingers, the tapping of the knee comes from.

Glass Blower Ben

Best friend Henry

Also, just for a little history lesson here.  Henry shot this video of me making a liquor cabinet a couple years ago.  In it I spontaneously come up with my moniker…MakerUnknown.
