New work from an on-going project called Dealers

The avocation of postage stamp collecting is becoming a rarity in itself.   The average age of
collectors is 65.  Young dealers and customers that would maintain the profession are scarce.

This project documents stamp collecting through a series of portraits of dealers in their natural
environment.  There is a general sense of pride in each dealer's accomplishments, yet feelings of
vulnerability and helplessness are certainly prevalent.  My intention is to capture this duality, and
provide a record of a profession that might soon be part of the past.

I hope that this project will provide recognition and appreciation for philatelic dealers, and generate
more interest in the art and history behind postage stamps.
