Bill loved to play with mud
"Paint," he said, "is just colored mud."
He lived to play in the mud!
His mud could be witty. Irreverent. Sexy. But - hey - so much fun.
Uh, oh: Art!
Nope. Just pictures. Stories told in mud. Throw in a dancing line, some set design, wit and impassioned craftsmanship and you get... this.
This? This is Bill Girard.
Few of the images shared here were captured by professional photographers...
with access to controlled lighting, studio conditions and sufficient time to do their best work.
Most these images were shared by "Friends of Bill."
Hopefully, the power of the pieces transcends the flaws of their presentation.
To put this in perspective, little about Bill’s life was ideal – aside from his work, his work ethic and kind heart. Why should this be any different?
OPT IN!
All I can offer is the chance to be among the first to learn of new additions to the website and new blog posts. This list will not be shared with anyone else.
