Still north of Toronto, she had never posed before for this kind of photography. She had a natural way of moving and thinking. Shortly after I ran head on with a pile of problems, most of my own making, we never got the chance to work together again. Huge loss.
My friend Loreena Mc Kennett from long ago and far far away. She must have been in her mid-twenty’s when this image was taken.

They’d invite me down when no one else was showing up because I loved my wine, I tipped well and I wouldn’t embarrass them. After a forty (40) absence I’d going to go down and meet her after her show.
