Portrait painting.
Where do you find inspiration?From everyday people and people of history whose compassion could not be contained. They reached out, touching lives by dropping their hate and becoming hope for others. The words and actions of MLK to the old woman who holds the door open, these are the signs that love has always prevailed. Two artists inspire me: John Singer Sargent, his direct brush work, and Norman Rockwell for his storytelling.
What would you do with $25,000?I'd take my wife to visit Poland, it's a lifelong dream of hers to go there, where her family is from. I'd donate a portion to the NAACP and the King Center in Atlanta. Lastly, I'd get a new sports coat and shoes.
