A client once asked for the faces to look as they do in May. It was August.
We redid the morning in the real month instead of painting May onto August.
Dust on a crate can hide a stamp. That speck we remove. The rest stays.
The desk sits on Strada Stefan cel Mare, across from the bus park. The people who call are growers, stall holders, and the depot. A brief that wants a styled kitchen goes somewhere else. By ten in summer the dust is on every face. We shoot before it, or we leave it. Cleaning a Cahul morning until it looks imported is the mistake we stopped making.
