Hiroshi Watanabe's photographic work is both inspiring and engaging. From his "Kabuki Players" series to his most recent (and very different) series "Ideologies in Paradise", Watanabe's photographic sensibilities and his experience help show us a path torward living a photographic life.

Note: Due to some technical issues with this episode, you will notice sound drop outs and a recurring blip sound. I apologize in advance and hope you still enjoy the interview.

I'm now offering editioned folios of photographs from my "Anonymous Lives" and "Figure Studies" series. Each folio contains a boxed set of signed, titled, and numbered original prints (6" x 9" image size on 8.5" x 11" museum quality archival papers using pigment inks) along with a signed and numbered folio title page, print listing, and artist statement. The portfolio box is hand-crafted and made of heavyweight binder board lined with an archival liner and covered in luxurious black buckram with a Velcro button closure. Each folio is an edition of ten sets. In other words, the first edition of a folio will have ten folio sets available. Once these sell out, a second edition will be printed. The folios are:

Anonymous Lives (12 prints, Price = $125 + S&H)
Figure Studies (15 prints, Price = $150 + S&H)
