What a pleasure to photograph the home of artist Jim Kirk for the House Beautiful feature section in Saturday’s Times-Colonist. I had met Jim several years ago when I was doing some volunteer work for the TLC (Land Conservancy) and they asked me if I would photograph Jim for a campaign they were running. What a surprise to see the larger than life Jim Kirk himself arrive at my studio covered head to toe in tattoos, with piercings and in a small PINK vintage car! When I found out I was going to see him again and photograph his home I was thrilled! Here are some of the photographs the T-C never used, plus those from Saturday’s section.
