I think I’ve enjoyed chatting with people who stop by as I paint almost as much as I’ve enjoyed painting. Over the course of 3 days I’ve met folks from Canada, Chicago, Texas, Arkansas, California and who knows where else. My ears have had the joy of listening to incredible pianists and I’ve been lucky enough to have had a young apprentice named Mirabella do a little painting for me today. Two gentlemen sat and talked with me on day two for a long time and now I have new acquaintances!  So far this experience has been pretty great!
