Statement by Casey Woods continued

On that clean white canvas, all his subjects are created equal, free for a moment from a world that insists we judge or label all that we see.

Don documents a rare space born of believing in the best in people, finding beauty in character, uniqueness and the imperfections of the human spirit that make it whole.

Don's gift comes from a basic conviction that there is a truth at the heart of humanity that can be captured with a camera. It's not about glamour or shock value or even aesthetic. It's about using honesty to tell a story of the stunning variety embedded in the commonality of our human experience. That is why in his work these people from all backgrounds, appearances and persuasions stand side by side, shoulder to shoulder with no rank or designation.

Because they belong that way.
