    His work is beautiful. He is a talented, loving, caring soul that makes friends easily, and they never forget him. I had the honor of meeting him at Connie’s where he got his hair cut. We wanted him to stay all day, telling us about his travels and his paintings. We were sad when he had to go.

SAVE THE DATE FOR 2027!
