I spent 3 days in Waller, Texas visiting and photographing my friend Daniel Johnston. 

He lives in what I can only describe as a treasure chest. There isn’t an empty wall in sight…they are covered with posters and photos, from Marilyn to The Beatles. Every shelf and corner filled with superhero/comic figurines, comic books, music, and VHS tapes. Spunky the cat roams the hallways. 

Above is a polaroid I took of him working in his art studio.

I’m looking forward to many more years of these quiet moments with Daniel, who seemed happier than I’d ever seen him be.

Thank you to the Johnston family for welcoming me with such warmth into their homes.
