So many people hold so many truths. Many have shared them with me and for them, I am deeply grateful. The ones most personal, I won't mention here but there are others you will know -- Klee, Calder, Van Gogh, Vermeer. The list is much longer but these four never fail to challenge and inspire me; they never fail to make me gasp. Two writers -- David Whyte and Maya Angelou -- have changed my life's course as well. There is one artist and teacher, Robert Henri, whose ART SPIRIT has a life's wisdom behind every word.
