The AD loved the work and said he'd pay Albert for two pictures.(Above): Fun City, Las Vegas, 2001, from Strip Search
When the check arrived, Albert and Liz thought there had been some sort of mistake...

...in the course of our careers we lose sight of our essential nature and our work becomes more mechanically driven and we also lose sight of our original goal of being an artist. The question is, how do I make my work more vital, which will give meaning to my life?
