Sometimes it is easy to fall into making a cliche photograph when taking pictures of artists. You should try to see beyond the obvious and make an interesting photograph that reveals the individual's character and personality. The expected shot would be him sitting or standing among his paintings and lithographs on the wall. I made a few of those images and was bored stiff. I decided, to move in tight and get a detail shot of his face and eyes. I wanted an intimate look into this famous person's face. A photograph that reveals who he is. This is RC Gorman.
