Hanson, who died in 1996, had this to say about his statues:

People enjoy seeing a sort of reflection of their society. The human form is so close to all of us and we don't really get a chance to analyze it, to look at it because of taboos and staring at people...
This sums up a lot of my own motivations for portrait taking.

photo of thomas locke hobbs Hi. I'm a 32 year-old American currently living in Buenos Aires. Before that I lived in California, Sao Paulo and New York and if you browse through the archives below you can see photos of all those places. I also have an old geocities page with some outdated information but also more photos of Buenos Aires, friends and my 9/11 pictures.

does spelling it out really prevent spam?
