A Little Backstory:
I've always had a strenuous relationship with my dad because he smokes. Like hard-core chain smoker, like $80 on cigarettes twice a month. Like, can't stop even if he can't afford it smoker. It's always bugged me and all of a sudden it started showing up in my art. Collage, photography, sketches. I go out every so often to do some street photography and always end up shooting people who smoke. Here are some photos I've taken through out the years.
I also secretly think they are cool, and around my friends, I put a cigarette between my fingers as I talk.
