found-art tuesday : memory

August 31, 2010 in Uncategorized

I was delighted to reconnect with my high school art teacher on Facebook recently, and to receive this contact sheet (what's that? I can imagine Tess asking) from him via email yesterday.

Ah, to see myself at 18, the age my oldest daughter, Emma, is now. A page of images holding so much memory and so much greater an understanding of the complexity of life at that age, and at this one.

My thanks, David Sheets, for keeping this tucked away in your attic for all those years.
