Help!!!

Does anyone have an old tapered 8x10 bellows I can borrow? It can leak like crazy. I don't care. Nor do I care what brand it is or color. I just need it relatively flexible and long.

I need it for a prop in a portrait that is being done of me by the notorious Karen Kuehn. www.karenkuehn.com/ (http://www.karenkuehn.com/)

I would be happy to pay rush shipping to and fro. Email me. Thanks.

I don't have a bellows all by itself; but I have an old Eastman 2D you could use if that would help.

Kirk, I have an 8x10 red bellows by itself, BUT I am on the road right now and won't be back home until Sunday - I could ship it to you first thing Monday morning - I live in Scottsdale and it shouldn't take long for it to get to you. I just need it back whenever you are done - it is part of a restoration project. Let me know if that would work for you. You can email me your address directly (sattler123@yahoo.com)

What did you do to be a subject? I have noticed her work for years - she is excellent.

Frank,

Pretty simple really....I bought her dinner after my last opening and after a bit too much vino...she offered. I agree she is first rate, a true creative.

Add another notch to the "you have arrived" belt

By the way, these days she is primarily working in 8x10!

John,

"Add another notch to the "you have arrived" belt"

Interesting point, I had not looked at it that way. Thanks for that insite. In all honesty the process of "arriving" seems a bit like watching grass grow. This has been no rock star journey. For me it seems like a very slow but gradually accelerating accumulation of ever slightly higher profile resume notations. I suppose there will be a qualitative shift at some point. I just hope I am alive to see it.

Is she really tattooed and punked up? Quite the hottie for the middle aged - bet she slays all those pony tailed posers in Santa Fe

(as I see Jamey Stillings writhing in the dust...)
