Ellen Kozak: What about colors in the red-violet range?

David Krumholtz: I can't tell you who that is yet.

Kozak: Then I seal the surface with gelatin.

Krumholtz: And yet it’s just a memory. What’s the difference?

Kozak: That’s a great bunch of questions.

Krumholtz: There comes a time in, I think, in a lot of people's lives where they question the existence of God, they question the existence of biblical history. There are certain days I just have to do that.

Kozak: This can create collisions and magnify attributes by imposing distance that is both perceptual and psychological.

Krumholtz: Just wiping people out of this general blanket of death.

Kozak: No. It was an artifact of the camera’s own death that got recorded on the memory card.

Krumholtz: And I immediately burst into tears.

Kozak: The Hudson River is experiencing a period of reindustrialization. I was drawn to their subtle tonalities, his beautiful craft, and use of the early morning light in the Paris Parks.

Krumholtz: It’s not lost on me. I think he has every right to feel positively about the future, think positively about the future, and not want to move his entire family to the middle of the desert.

Kozak: True and well stated.

Krumholtz: Thank you so much.

Kozak: Does this make sense?
