We are talking about obsessions which determine the gestures and perceptions of artists throughout a life's work, even when their conscious attention is elsewhere. A kind of bias of the imagination. The way a life's work slips towards a theme which is home for that artist.

IN CASE THERE'S ANY DOUBT: No, you do not have permission to use my photos without asking me first. All of my photos are copyrighted to me; I have not vacated my rights just because I post my photography on the Internet.

All of my photos are marked ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

If you want to use any of my photographs, ask me. If you want to profit from any of my photographs (for instance, using my photos to sell your own stuff), then the answer is you have to pay me, but probably no. It really depends on what you're selling. A magazine (photos for an article)? Let's talk. Stuff on eBay? No.
