I work in many medium, but pastels are unique and my favorite because of the immediacy of colors
Where do you find inspiration?I’m 74, sold my first oil painting at 18. My reference is often Classical inspired Landscapes void of human references. I get inspiration from my students and where on the planet I am. I write books, garden weed, photograph, write music, paint, teach homeschoolers in my valley and Nicaragua. I have traveled 74 countries on the globe. My inspiration is my spiritual, ethical code and continuing at multiple expressions that promote a global perspective.
What would you do with $25,000?I need an assistant to archive my massive out put. Commercial outlets is something I have avoided, other than my own web site.
