"Burgoon's settled in TEXAS in 1850.

I arrived 134 years later. I landed in Madrid, Spain for personal art tutelage with

D. Fco. Alcaraz, on Independence Day, 1994;

He restored prehistoric cave paintings in southern France, iconic European cathedrals,

Rembrandt, did 2-mans with Picasso, and is held by Le Louvre, the Palace of Versailles, El Prado, and The Met in New York City.

What an opportunity!

"I was making precise, detailed drawings

and played with color when I was 4½ y/o.

My Phi Beta Kappa mom and internationally sought dad, who had a specialty hospital built for him by the family that built Brooklyn Bridge, and their children, paid a price for their PTSD.

My parents wanted a scientist -

I became a painter.

I was born and raised in Philadelphia. But,

I prefer the rustic charm of Southwest living

where I matured amidst the junipers".

1) Think Outside the Box Carroll's don't

     just hang on walls, they rewire. They teach 

     you to see differently, to solve creatively,    

 to question everything.                              

2) Youthfulness. Brilliance. Legacy.      

    His paintings aren't just pigment on paper

 —They're time capsules of curiosity and

courage.                                                    

 To collect them is to invest in something

        rarer than money—Enduring vision.             

3) Collectors: Foundations, heiresses 

& heirs. The smartest money knows     

 wealth isn't stocks or real estate ... it's    

 owning pieces of a mind that refused   

to follow the herd.                                  

   So yes ... Buy art but more importantly—

 Let art buy you back.                           

"It was a Brazilian lady, granddaughter of the co-founder of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo, 1895, who arranged my study

with Don Fco. Alcaraz.

Helena was a woman of patience, of wealth, of presence. She knew the value of stillness and the power it can hold. She reached out across the ocean to ensure the training of this up-and-coming artist. Some angels don't wear wings—They wear vision—and move quietly through art history. She took a big, albeit calculated risk.

Carpe diem!

" 'Uncle Duck,' Don Carter, could spot an

opportunity 'down the road' long before anyone else - and he was always ready for its arrival.

I loved his summer cabin in the Northwoods.

I loved landing on a private mile long lake in the Pocono Mts. in a G-44 Grumman Widgeon -

We took off from a cornfield near home.

"My given name, Carroll, honors our Maryland neighbor, last living signer of the Declaration of Independence, Charles Carroll of Carrollton.

Burgundy, France. My family was Burgund

when boarding the Maryland-bound Lydia in 1740; The Burgunds disembarked Burgoon.

Burgundians lived on Burgundarholmr Island,

Denmark, before returning to the mainland.

Burgundians conquered 4th Century Europe,

fully 1000 years before Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance of the arts and sciences.

"The president of the U.S. sent me a note saluting me for my community service. Now, receiving U.S. National Medal of Arts and

Praemium Imperiale, 高松宮殿下記念世界文化賞,

would be super cool.

"I'm a SYMBOLIST. I paint meaning with emotion, not pigments, provoking thought. I transform pain into something beautiful and hang with Picassos and a Chagall on a cattle ranch. I've painted some powerful scenes and some influential folks at the world-level,

yielding-art, Jujutsu style 柔術.

"I've painted for the art capital, Santa Fe, NM.

I've donated to Albuquerque's Adoption Exchange, National Medal of Honor Museum Foundation, etcetera, etcetera.

WATERCOLOR is a NATURALISTIC medium

for brilliant minds. WC captures emotion, magnificently, plus, it styles a Red Carpet EQ.

The erudite collect and curate art on paper.

"I paint the kraa-kraa of ravens soaring over the valley as I sit drinking a cup of joe.

I love a thundering storm; Snow by the cubic foot; My breath lingering in mountain air.

I love sleeping under a warm silk jacquard and Siberian down comforter. I love wash boarding up rural roads and walking barefoot on pine needles - Vastly more priceless than da Vinci's Salvator Mundi. Look through glass not made of sand, rather, you can feel the PRESENCE.

All trails lead to breathtaking views.

"I enjoy seclusion, old, old homes decorated to Period, old books, a meadow stream, a barn full of horses, spring fed water, museums, collecting, no neighbors in sight, vacations, dining out with my sweetheart, patrons, and friends ...

and 25-year-old Macallan -

"Feel the silent Light in my brushstrokes,

carry the fast, vibrant motions, bold strokes

splash of emotion and rush of passion.

I paint not in spite of the world's chaos ...

but in Light of it. I step into the eye of the storm where I find stillness.

My watercolors are rich in heart. Rich in peace where the beauty of nature isn't just a luxury—

It's a way of life. Richly so.
