Sharon was a good mom.  Karma was a shy, sweet little girl yet very curious and inquisitive in her quiet way.  Sharon kept their house in good order and Karma was always clean, well dressed and well fed—not always the case for all the Taylor Camp kids.  I don’t recall seeing Karma in anything but long flowing dresses, usually in the very modest Hawaiian mumu style.

Seeing that Sharon was a bit self-conscious, and hoping to capture a moment of calm insight, I purposely fooled around with my tripod and camera to give them some time to relax into the moment.  Karma let me know how bored she was by pretending to fall asleep. I decided that was my moment of insight.

This photo was made in the back door of the camp’s “Free Store” food coop.

PHOTO PRINTS
Prints are on Hahnemuhle heavyweight (315 gsm) 100% archival cotton “Photo Rag Baryta” paper, using archival inks and archival spray coating. They have a 200-year life expectancy before any deterioration of the print will be observed when stored, handled, and displayed under archival conditions.

CANVAS PRINTS
What is often called “Gallery Wrap Canvas” is a fine art inkjet (Giclee) print on canvas, with printed edges to wrap around a wooden stretcher frame, like a painting. With canvas prints, your print image is still the same size, but given a "wrap effect" around the edges to account for the thickness of the stretcher. Canvas can be rolled and shipped with no effect to the print. Your local framing shop should be able to mount the canvas to stretchers at a fraction of the cost of traditional framing, making for an overall more economical way to get fine art on your wall. The canvas is printed to wrap around a 1-inch stretcher (1.5 inches on larger sizes). Specifications will be provided with your order. Feel free to contact us if you need guidance with your canvas order.
