      "Last Glance" emerged out of my desire to concentrate and focus my attention on simple beauty in its purest form.  I consider myself most fortunate that to find such beauty I don't have to look further than the boundaries of my own home.  Stefanie has been one of my favorite subjects ever since we first met way back in 1990 and she continues to inspire.

     What is "Last Glance" about?  Short of a pure expression of beauty, the title inflects the temporal nature of our physical existence on this planet.  With every glance we take, it is our last one of the ever changing present moment.  Besides that existential outlook, in time... we never know when the last glance may come and we would do well to take the time to fully appreciate the details which make up our human experience while we're here.  Bringing it back to the metaphysical, and to keep the Buddhists happy, the subject of the piece is taking a last glance at nothing at all.
