Artist Statement:

Shyness was my greatest weakness growing up. At 44, I rediscovered my shyness and am trying to fight it. The whole process of this work forced me to fight off my shyness. Allowing viewers to look at a large-sized photograph of myself, shirtless, wearing only underwear is another big challenge in my struggle with shyness.
