In researching that I visited his son, Fred Jr., in Brooklyn. Freddie had dozens of paintings stashed throughout his apartment.
I managed several photos, only a few are legible. Shooting paintings is hard enough, but this was 2002 remember -we didn't have digital cameras. Getting any exposure without glare, indoors, on a painting was darned near impossible.
This was my favorite one.
If I recall correctly, that's not framed its trompe l'oeil. I do clearly remember the immediate magnetism in her face.
This, kind of a lousy picture. Flipping through my file she jumped out as she never had before.

Totally dig these. I hope to one day walk down the street looking like that last one! Something to strive for!
Dude, we had digital cameras in 2002! Sure they shot out laser beams that permanently blinded everyone in the room but we had 'em!
