Amadelio

Check out this new film http://www.amadelio.org/ , a documentary about Jock Sturges. I met Jock in the early 90s and he quickly became a friend and for years he was an active and involved mentor for me. I learned so much from him about photography, art, and printing; every artist should be so lucky as to meet someone so talented and willing to share their time and knowledge. Jock moved to Seattle several years back and I don't see him much now, but I sing his praises whenever and wherever I can. He is an incredibly talented photographer, as well as one of the finest human beings you could ever meet.

I had the good fortune of taking a week long course Jock Sturges conducted during the Palm Spring Photo Festival. His humanity was what impressed me most, and one gets but a glimpse of the man during the Amadelio documentary.
