Christmas Tree

The Red Glove made it to the top of the tree. Don't think it will last, but this is our tree tonight.

Mount Baldy

The Red Glove made it's first hike with us today.  We drove 60 miles to Mount Baldy. The original idea for the shoot was to photograph the Red Glove on the snow, we were a few weeks early.  I

Red Glove Nude

TVH with Red Glove and Sketch

Hopefully the first of many unguarded portraits with The Red Glove.  My hope for this project is to capture real moments, with contemporaries, not set up moments or moments with  boundaries.   Just that kind of snapshot of life, the kind of images that we all have but don't often share.

Hello

Red Glove with Cocktail #1

Tonight started very typically.  Dinner, kids to bed, MOCA opening.  Somewhere along the way we ended up running home to grab The Red Glove and meet a friend at Crazy Girls.... Hadn't been in there since the 90's , the live band performing with the ladies is a nice touch.  

The Smoking Glove

One of the first images of The Red Glove series, The Smoking Glove... Kristy on the front porch, getting to know our new prop.

Formal Portaits

The first studies of The Red Glove.  I thought it important to expose the glove front and back, kind of its mug shot as it was when it first came into my care and out of the gutter.

Today I found The Red Glove

         

The Red Glove lay in my gutter yesterday morning.  I photographed it, then started to wonder what its story was; who lost it, do they miss it, how old is it, where has it been? Then continued on with my day.   I spoke with a few friends about the glove all of whom had their own thoughts, and some even claimed ownership. This morning I awoke with the hope that the glove was still there, as it seemed to have awoke an inspiration in me.  I made some coffee and ran outside to find it still in the gutter under the front passenger tire of a parked car.  I was able to get it out and brought it in to start to dry and take its initial portrait, front view and back view,  in its current condition.
