body, mind and spirit when you stand before my watercolor paintings. I want to connect with you, to touch you, profoundly.
"My lil' watercolor hangs with Picasso oils
on a Fort Worth, Texas gentleman's ranch!
I paint with East Coast exclusivity,
with a tad bit of English aristocracy and
starry night romance. Yee-haw."

Oeuvre: 1,000+ Artworks
25th Anniversary 2019
"I rinsed my brush in my crystal of Cab, used my toothbrush on some Botanical Garden works, sandpapered a dozen bespoke Holy Land pics, tore up stacks of my originals and hundreds of 4 x 5's. I sold my life-changing purple thistles drawing for $100 just to get it out of my sight -
I donated 65 to 75 originals to non-profits, 28,000 1st Ed S/N GiclΓ©es, prints and
2,500+ Ode to Joy journals.
"Cocktail parties for me can be nerve-racking. The brevity of conversations, the number of them - it's not my sweet spot."
- MacKenzie Scott, author
"It was the Brazilian granddaughter of the co-founder of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo in 1895, who arranged my study with her friend Alcaraz. Helena was a gracious, thoughtful and keenly intelligent lady. She reached out across the ocean to ensure the training of this artist.
"Ode to Joy (Beethoven's Ninth) Many of my watercolors were made while listening to
Nancy Brunson morning host of Girl Power WRR Classical 101.1 FM, Dallas, Texas.
"I paint LOVE, because love isn't soft, it's hard.
My fingers move with the fury of a prophet
and the patience of a saint.
"Four-star General Tommy Franks (Ret), former USCENTCOM Commander overseeing a 25-country-region including the Middle East, penned the foreword to my first book,
Ode to Joy, which he called a 'therapeutic journal'. A Hall of Fame musician introduced us.
I donated 2,500+ full-color throughout, perfect bound, 200-page First Editions.
"Kitsy Westmoreland had her NY attorney son take her picture with me at a small private dinner aboard the Queen Mary in Long Beach, attended by 40 Medal of Honors and two
Knight of Malta Commanders who reported to the Pope. I was invited to join a priory with Presidents Reagan, Carter, Gorbachev, and South American presidents. I declined. Arrangements were made by Westy's ADC;
I was the guest of a Knight of Malta oil company president. The dean of neurosurgery, a Knight of Columbus, hosted a private lunch for me in his office. An A.H. Belo Trustee mentored and championed me; As did Ross Perot and his philanthropy consultant. One mentor, a Brewer's sinker-slider pitcher laughing said, 'I threw one too many pitches to Barry Bonds' -
I'd played Little League Baseball 3 years ... Then, I wrestled 5 years, played tennis 16+ years, raced bikes on the banked track (RHR 28 VO2 max 75, 40 to 60 miles daily high intensity training, free weights, rope jumped 2 hours 7 days a week), qualified as Alternate to Nationals my novice year; Then, I ran distance (PB 4:08 mile) on 70 to 95 sub-six miles weekly for 20+ yrs; I did 70-minute-Power walks 7 miles daily.
Then, I had a stroke. Now, I focus on what's right in front of me. I still have the same vim and vigor. As I grow old, I will change physically,
but I will not change behaviorally.
I'm a Baby Boomer INFP-A
"Serene Majesty the King of Spain Juan Carlos Uno sent me a letter days after receiving a copy of my first therapeutic journal, Ode to Joy.
Old money, royal power, prestige. Wow!
I archived the letter".
