Taking this time to express my feelings on what my work represents and what the direction of Rapture is taking. Lately it seems we are gaining a certain amount of fans, and this could be due to Rachels, obvious beauty and also that you enjoy my work. It honestly doesn't matter to me which it is, as long as you enjoy the show. Rapture was begun many years ago, as an outlet to my erotic mind. Each image is what I see and how I see it. If you're enjoying what you see then you're in my head and you see just how I see something to be desired.

I was told long ago that my children are my living and lasting legacy. True! But only to an extent. They are my blood trail, but not my fingerprint. My work, my murals, my photography, my sculptures are my material legacy, and they represent my vision, my voice, my expression of what I have seen while I lived. If you trace each brushstroke that I made then you are allowed the gift of being able to go back in time to when I made it. When I look at an image that Edward Weston or Ansel Adams made, I see myself behind the camera seeing what they have seen. This is their legacy, their comment on life, while they were alive. Rapture and many of my other sites are my speech, while on this world.

This being said, it recently came to my attention that many question why Rachel and I resuurected Rapture and why we chose to mainstream my work in nude and eroticism. Even going so far to voice that it is wrong, but not my judgement, but by their own personal morals. My answer to them is to, simply move on! Don't waste your breath. We are by far to advanced in intelligence these days to be so narrow minded and religious bible thumbing to believe that everyone should bend to a high morality. Keep your opinion to yourself, and your thoughts, and while you are at it, use the exit option and don't enter the site. I don't have the time to waste on these sort of people! For all others who enjoy our work...............Welcome!
