PERSONAL FAVORITES FROM A LIFETIME IN ART
JUNE/JULY/August 2023
Art goes on. I’ve led a complicated life interrupted by several serious illnesses but, no matter what, almost always, I made art. I started like almost everyone else as a kid and passed the early teenage years when almost all kids stop. But I didn’t. I went to The Museum of Modern Art Children’s School and then The Art Students League and the Hochschule fur Bildende Kuenste in Berlin and on and on until I received a Master of Fine Arts.
Once or twice, I thought I might do something else, but I kept on painting until I was totally unsuccessful getting a gallery. Not making it in the sixties. I couldn’t get a gallery but got a creative block instead – until I discovered stained glass. Then art kept on going until making it, I made something of myself – my small bit of fame. My painterly stained glass is widely acknowledged and appreciated; I am a Senior Advisor of The American Glass Guild; In 2019 I received The Lifetime Achievement Award from the Stained Glass Association of America.
