I first met Patricia Hutter when I was learning to dance the Argentine tango. I found out she played and plays the string bass for the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra. She is from New York City and she is most sophisticated. She also paints. Best of all, she married my neighbour Robert Freedman so she lives nearby. Patricia often invites me to drink tea in her kitchen. I told her I wanted to photograph her with her bass. She said yes, but blushed when I mentioned I wanted her to pose on her bed. Here she is with Nicolo.
