Patrice Graves

A Vision to Inspire Joy

by Paul Seiple photo by Josh Lucia, Lucia Video

atrice Graves was introduced to photography “about 20 years ago” in high school while working at Ritz Camera. “At the camera store we would develop a film in a dark room and repair cameras,” she said. Snapping memories took a backseat to life after that part-time job ended. The art of capturing an image re-entered Graves’ life after the death of her grandmother. During the grieving process, Graves became depressed after feeling she didn’t have many personal photos of her grandmother. “I decided I wanted to make sure I capture most moments for keepsake,” Graves said. Added motivation to pick up a camera came from those close to her. “I would show family and friends pictures I took years ago. They would be so grateful I kept the photo for that long. The old photos would become a social piece to engage in conversation when I would have company.” Graves attributes meeting Bobby Roach while interning at Danville

Community College as a pivotal moment in her photography journey. “Bobby Roach was like a mentor to me. I would help with the college publications. Take photos and help with media. That’s when I decided to commit and start my photography business in August 2023.” Her photography is a product of the essence of every celebration she captures. Graves added, “Leaving you with masterpieces to be cherished for a lifetime.” Originally from Wilmington, Delaware, Graves has called Danville home for the last 13 years. Along with her husband, Robert, she has 5 children. The area provides an unlimited number of canvases for her to use as inspiration. Graves has a fondness for many styes of photography, but one stands out. “I tend to specialize in portrait photography. Shooting portrait style allows me to interact with people. I’m a social and friendly person who enjoys people and is not afraid to be around crowds.” She uses the portrait

to nail the subject’s personality. Graves continued, “I aim to personalize experiences and leave a lasting impression.” For her, the perfect photo has 3 key elements. The image must be non-altered. It must show emotion. And most importantly, it needs to be a “clean, crisp photo that tells a story.” Creativity is another crucial tool in a photographer’s camera bag. To Graves, creativity holds a certain element of individuality topped with authenticity. She feels a group of photographers could be asked to get creative with the same subject and every image would have its own identity. “You’re able to have your own creative perspective and have fun all at the same time.” Ideas aren’t scarce for Graves. She uses each photographic opportunity to construct an unforgettable moment. “Whether it be a wedding shoot or a community event, I ask myself, ‘How the client would want to remember this day.’” Her

philosophy of photography is rooted in the belief that “every client is unique, and their stories deserve to be told with passion and authenticity.” Graves remembers the days back at Ritz Camera and aspiring to be a professional photographer. Her advice to up-and-coming photographers is to never compare or compete with others. “We all create, edit, and photograph in different ways. Be inspired by other photographers and do not doubt yourself. God made each individual unique for a reason—to be different. Have a vision to inspire joy.” Graves hopes that people will find the genuine elements that resonate within her work. “I try not to alter photos too much. Altering photos take away from the photo being authentic. If I decide to alter or edit a photo, I try to edit at a minimum. And above all, that I am a passionate professional who genuinely values every detail.”

ome people are simply born with creative spark. Willow Gatewood is one such individual. “I can’t not create,” she told us when she sat down with us in mid-December. “Since I was young, I’ve had a hard time understanding my feelings about the world around me. Art is a way for me to explore that.” Willow began her early education in public school, but shy and awkward, she struggled to find her way. Her mother took her out of school but, with a full-time career, found it difficult to monitor all the aspects of homeschooling. Fortunately, Willow was eager to learn. Self-driven and possessed of a curious nature, she took it upon herself to design her curriculum, exploring the subjects that interested her most. At seven she began writing stories, creating characters, and designing worlds. She would draw them, write songs for them, and even create elaborate backdrops and settings, bringing the ideas fully out of her head and into a three-dimensional presence. By the time she was fifteen, she was performing her music in local

coffee shops and open-mic nights, and though her shyness threatened to overwhelm her, she found joy in self-expression. “I’m still awkward,” she says, “but I’ve gotten better at hiding it.” A musician, a songwriter, a poet, a writer of fantasy fiction, a pen and ink artist, and a painter, Willow’s work is interdisciplinary, but also cerebral. When an idea presents itself, then she begins the process of exploring it, imagining it from various angles, and to answer the questions that idea presents. concerned with mediums than with concepts and messages, she chooses whatever method of composition will bring the idea most appropriately to life. Inspiration may come while walking in the woods, or it may be something she happens across in a junk store or in a dumpster. She loves taking recycled things and finding new purpose for them. Often her work combines mediums them, transcends them, and there is often a written or performative aspect to her pieces. When asked to describe what this

process looks like, she recalled a recent hospital stay. During this time, she found herself feeling isolated and cut off. As someone who had grown up in the countryside, she was not used to being kept apart from the outside world, nor from those she is close to. She knew, however, that this feeling was only an illusion, and that there are more ways to connect with those around us than through spoken word or even physical touch. This idea got her thinking about the ways in which we communicate on a microscopic, even microbial level. “As we sit and talk,” she explained to us, “we exchange microbes. I become a part of you, and you become a part of me.” Holding a degree in Environment and Sustainability, Willow hopes her work brings people to an awareness of our interconnectedness. To that end, she has recently found herself exploring biosonification. Here she takes living things—fungi, moss, various other plant life—connects them to electrodes, and uses technology to translate the natural processes into sound while another program turns the sound

into images. As she interacts with the organism, the sounds and images change. It’s a way to illustrate interconnectedness of all living things and thereby introduce conversations about our environment and our relationship with it. Willow’s work is deeply didactic. Her hope is to drive change toward social justice and ecological sustainability. “We are all so deeply connected, everything we do affects, in some minute way, everything around us.”

OWE Arts & Culture exists to highlight the diverse range of talent among Danville’s creative community and to provide opportunities for that community to come together.

Action! Inside the Method of Acting

Ashlyn Rising by Emily Wilkerson photo courtesy of

Smokestack Theatre Co

shlyn Rising is a ninthgrade student at Westover Christian Academy. Her favorite subjects include English, history, and most importantly, drama. Rising has been acting for over five years now. She got her start in the fourth grade, creating skits to perform for her teachers. Rising shared that she “loved the feeling of an entertained audience, no matter how small the audience was, so I made a new skit every day. I think they thought I was a really weird kid, but I didn’t care. I loved being the skit girl!” Rising has combined all three of her favorite subjects by performing in Smokestack Theatre Company’s annual historical ghost tour, Ghosts & Gravestones. She has been a part of this production four times now. But Rising’s favorite was her first year in 2020, playing Flora Lapham. She said, “That show was so special to me because it made me realize I’ll be doing this for the rest of my life.” Readers might remember seeing her in this role on the cover of the October 2020 Evince. Rising has grown up with the show, having since played the gHostess, Elizabeth Royall, and was recently promoted to a guide in the 2023 production.

Having become an avid play reader over the past few years, Rising finds it challenging to pick just one show as the favorite. If she must pick one, it would be Shrek the Musical. Yes, the beloved animated film has been made into a stage play, and it takes a lot of confidence for those actors to get on stage as green ogres! Rising believes confidence is key when it comes to acting. She claimed, “If you aren’t positive in your own actions, the audience won’t understand your character. What you say is worth every single person in the room listening to.” Preparing for a role is no easy task. Rising finds the most beneficial way for her to prepare is to read the script over and over, paying attention to all the character’s word choices and stage directions the playwright has written. She said the more she reads the script, the better she can understand her character and put herself in their shoes, ultimately becoming the character. While Rising is not prone to stage fright, she falls victim from time to time. In that moment, her technique is to visualize the script in her brain to help jog her memory.

Rising attributed a portion of her acting success to her role model, a local Averett student majoring in theatre, Kylie Morton. “I have always watched her amazing work ethic and obvious talent. One day, that woman is going to be a role model for so many others as well. Not only that, but she is an extraordinary friend to have in every situation. She’s generous, a great leader, hilarious, and she’d drop everything to help me if I needed it because that’s just the kind of person she is. I couldn’t ask for a

better role model.” For those who may be hesitant about putting themselves out there on stage, Rising quoted none other than Shrek the Musical. “‘Let your freak flag fly.’ Never for one second change who you are because someone told you they didn’t like it. What’s so bad about being a little different, a little strange? Nothing. Know who you are. Remind the world you’re not afraid of their judgment.”

THE POET’S CORNER

Agitation by Barry Koplen

Ant colonies, their busy carpenters unphased by clear glass walls at a museum, allow their construction to be my distraction just before I open your brief note. It burrows into my heart as if my ant-inspired vision had been watching as you wrote it.

About Barry’s Writing: I spent years finding my style and improving it. That will always remain a challenge. Language must be pertinent, cohesive, and energetic in order to captivate readers. Simple sentences are just as important as longer complex sentences. A well-functioning

vocabulary is essential. So is honesty. As for poetry, that will always be one of the most challenging of the verbal arts. Poetry writing can humble any writer; knowing that has made me measure myself as a poet by this thought: a poet is only as good as the next poem he or she writes. Thanks to Eric Chou, an amazing Chinese author (and ‘second’ father to me), I learned the most important lesson about becoming a bona fide writer: writing has to be done every day That has been my golden rule.

Time, Cooper, and Me by Linda Lemery

ime is our biggest asset, but also our greatest enemy. The start of a new year is a good time to think about what time means to us. In terms of assets, heightened awareness of time means making more choices about how to spend it. I’ve chosen to spend more time with the important people and animals in my life. That means making sure time is available for them. For the animals, it means budgeting time for walks and play. For people, in addition to having friends and family in our home, it means organizing pastimes that we can all explore together. These could include board games or day excursions to visit a: home tour, music or film festival, winery/ meadery/brewery, play or independent film that might not be widely available, book club or other group meeting, concert, cooking demonstration, lecture, resale treasure shop, church, or play frisbee golf, tennis, golf, or go hiking. Exploring something together, both collaboratively and synergistically, has value. We can all be more and build more together. That’s important because we’re all mortal, and mortality tends to show up on its own time. Part of being human is offering support to others when and where we can because we all need it, either now or when we’re embroiled in the next crisis that’s lurking just around the corner.

We always think we have more time, but because of the mortality thing, sometimes we don’t. People live finite lives. We have to think through what activities we want in our lives and then put them in place, because if we don’t create time and space for those activities, the universe certainly won’t do that for us. So many things are important to our world including volunteer work, but we have to define individually what’s important to us, then schedule time for the things we’ve deemed important. If there’s something we’ve always wanted to do, we should do it while we still can. For example, being healthier is important to me. I watch what I eat and drink. I schedule workout time 4-5 days per week to really push myself toward growth, including better balance as I age. I’m trying to carve out more time for sleep. I’m trying to read more and write more. Writing really pushes me toward growth. And for me, lifelong learning means stepping out of my comfort zone. Why else would an introvert force herself to get up on a stage? For growth. Lifelong learning takes many forms. S pending time with my husband Steve, friends, and family, including our grandchild, is important. I schedule that time as trips, dinners, book club meetings, whatever. And making new friends is important, too. I try to overcome my native introversion

by connecting with people over what they’re interested in. As a result, I now have occasional Wordle, Wordle-6, Spelling Bee, Waffle, and other digital games in my life, not because I’m fascinated by the games, but because they are conduits for connecting with people. There’s an additional component to managing my time—and writing this piece—because Time is the name of my grand-cat, named after the children’s book Timecat by Lloyd Alexander. When our son and wife are out of town, I stay with my grand-cat. Time together seems as important to her as it is to me. I love having Time in my life in this very meta way. As I write this, Time’s on the couch with me. Steve and I have a new old dog, Cooper. This small dog needed a good home, we picked him, and he picked us. This may be our only chance to ever have a Minicooper with four on the floor! What a gift this is! So, I’m spending January giving thanks for our relationships—once again, human and nonhuman— and the infrastructures that foster maintaining them. May I continue to remember these important themes throughout the year, and if I am lucky and keep working at it, throughout my life. About the author: Linda Lemery llemery@gmail.com wishes Evince readers a happy 2024. She welcomes reader comments.

Movies You Missed

from 20 years ago by Josh Lucia

The Butterfly Effect (7/10 Rating) Released January 23, 2004 For rent/purchase on all major platforms. Genre: Drama, Sci-Fi, Thriller R: Violence, Sexual Content, Language, and Brief Drug Use 1h 53m The Butterfly Effect blew my mind when I saw it twenty years ago. It was a wild ride and an

interesting take on time travel and the effect changing small events might have on the present or future. I remembered it being somewhat dark, but I think the plot twists and concepts left me with a memorable experience and a film I would recommend. However, watching this film again, remembering most of the gimmicks and plots, leaves behind a very dark movie. The first thirty minutes is just childhood

trauma event after childhood trauma event. Then it just gets more and more painful to watch. Without the excitement of unknowns, this film is a downer… but it’s also thought-provoking and will get into your head, so if you enjoy a thriller with some sci-fi aspects of time travel, then give it a watch. Just don’t expect to be in a great mood when the credits roll. At least the ending cleans up the mess somewhat, with a bit of hope. Be warned, there are some intense moments that may trigger real-life prior trauma for some. Ashton Kutcher basically has to carry the weight of this movie and he does surprisingly well in the lead role. The child actors are okay once you settle in. The remaining adult cast compliments Kutcher’s performance. There is an alternate ending you can find online and on some special features that really ices the cake on this depression-inducing ride. There are usually a few more laughs thrown in to balance out

a film like this, but this one truly is not very fun. Unfortunately, a lot of the terror comes from realistic events many have had to endure. Without spoiling too much, one example of the dark subject matter in this film involves a father with his video camera. You don’t want to be right about where it is headed, but you will be. It’s mostly an uncomfortable movie to sit through, but maybe that’s the escape you are into. I certainly was twenty years ago. It’s a well-done film with plenty of flaws and plot holes, but if you don’t mind something like Requiem for a Dream, you should check this one out. If you need a palate cleanser, check out Along Came Polly for a laugh out loud comedy. Also released in January 2004: Along Came Polly, Chasing Liberty, My Baby’s Daddy, Torque, Win a Date with Tad Hamilton!, The Perfect Score, You Got Served (follow @jlucia85 for these reviews and more)

It’s Okay to Play in Your

Good Clothes! by Mack Williams

he other day, on my way to my car, in Danville’s Westover Drive Food Lion parking lot, I saw something which “jumped out at me” (not literally, though). It began with something we all do (or should do) with our grocery carts when we’re through with them, but morphed into a sort of game. A lady was getting ready to put her cart in the store parking lot’s used cart bin. But the way in which she did it was most unique. She appeared to be in her late 60s. But how she “parked’ her cart was like a child at play. She sighted along her thumb in the same manner as Gary Cooper in “Sergeant York” (1941) when he “took a bead” with his Springfield Rifle. This lady’s “sighting” also had a purpose since she and her cart

were about 20-30 feet away from the other parked carts. The look upon her face brought back to me the look of a determined game-playing kid on the grammar school playground. It also reminded me of the look on a pitcher’s face while winding up for a pitch (but in this case, she was “pitching” a grocery cart, not a baseball). She let go with a push (or a shove)

after setting the same look of determination on her face as that of an athlete about to give it her best shot. At the sound of her grocery cart crashing into line with those already assembled carts (kind of like a bowling ball hitting the pins), her face lit up like a bowler who had just made a strike! I also thought of the look of triumphant joy on the faces of croquet players and “whack-a-mole-ers” (a kind of “opposite end of the spectrum” in these last two). I was surprised that after her successful “strike,” the senior lady didn’t raise her arms and exclaim, “Woo-hoo!”, or in my day, “YeeHa!” In her apparent levity of mood, she added a sense of sport to something as utilitarian as a grocery cart. In her own way, she gave evidence that a sense of playfulness should last for many decades past the eruption of wisdom teeth and into the

denture years (although; I did not enquire as to her particular dental condition). In fact, such a happy sense, like a musical instrument, should be tuned, played, returned, and played throughout life. When we were children, our parents stressed the changing out of our “good clothes” and shoes into dress less formal for play, preserving those “good clothes” for when a proper impression should be made. So, try to add a little (or more) playfulness into the daily things you do (of course, not in driving or balancing a checkbook). Just a fraction of a percentage point of playfulness can change the character of the whole day. When your mind laces up its figurative “Air Jordans” in order to make a “free throw,” don’t worry about what else you may be wearing. It’s okay to play in your good clothes!
