Oeuvre: 1,000+ Artworks in 30 years
"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

BILLBOARD
"I paint LOVE, because love isn't soft, it's hard.
My fingers move with the passion of a prophet
and the patience of a saint who's madly in LOVE. I'm not here to coast-Rather, to hit the gas and stay in control. Life's like turn 21 on the
Jeddah Corniche Circuit. (ΨΩΨ¨Ψ© ΩΩΨ±ΩΩΨ΄ Ψ¬Ψ―Ψ©).
You LOVE my art, or you do not.
You LOVE me, or you do not.

"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.

"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 and qualified as Alternate to Nationals my novice year; Then, I ran distance on 70 to 95 sub-six miles weekly for 20+ yrs. I was a hiker, a SCUBA pro, and a backpacker; 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 am a nature-loving jock, a Baby Boomer, a wordsmith, a thought leader, and INFP-A.
I am old but proven, experienced, and
thoroughly trained. I brake late".
