So you want to know about me?

Let's start with the basics: my name is Clare and I live in Dallas. Here are a few random facts that might help you understand who I am... 

- Received my BA in Art from Rhodes College but begged them to say "Art History" for my parents' benefit when I graduated. No dice.

- Wrote my senior thesis on this painting during my junior year while everyone else was in Florida on Spring Break. 10 years later and I'm still bitter.

- Interned at a small gallery where I was privileged enough to have works by Ansel Adams, Dorothea Lange, Walker Evans and Lewis Hine at my fingertips. Got valuable first hand experience on how to deal with a certain shipping service when they destroyed a rare painting in transit to another gallery.

- Would give anything for the chance to be a concert photographer for a summer or twelve.

Ella’s chow bowl given to her by my old roomie – never has there been a more perfect gift for that cat.

This is another one that is coming in after midnight, but you have my word that I took it before the clock struck 12.  I volunteered tonight at the Oscar Night America Party and I *may* have won the coolest silent auction prize EVER. I will post photos of it once I find out. In the meantime, here is Day 19:

Technically it is after midnight, but once again: I make the rules. And I just got home, so I wasn’t able to upload it until now. On a related note, I implore you to check out the band Dawes. Behold, their pedals:

My first portrait session of 2010 and I don’t think I could have asked for a better subject. Sweet Claudia was definitely ready for her close up – look at those gorgeous lashes!
