Well I needed to take a photography course in order to graduate college. This was 3 Years ago and I do more photography than sit down paint, draw, and sculpt. Photography is freedom. No sitting down getting plumb lines correct, no worries about getting the correct proportions, or having to sit down or stay in one place to capture your subject. Photographs creat that instantaneous drawing of a subject.

Photo=Light, Graph(y)=write, draw,record
