Gia Marie Houck

Gia Marie Houck took this month’s cover photograph, of a Charles Umlauf sculpture titled “War Mother,” in the courtyard of the McNay Art Museum in San Antonio, Texas. Houck describes the day she took the photo as “dreary and overcast, which made this image of suffering even more poignant.” She lives in Austin, Texas.
