I’ve returned from an incredible trip to the Windy City and will share some of my adventures soon, but in the meantime… It’s Wednesday and that means a continuation of the ongoing saga of the Cosmic Fish! Today I’d like to share Nicholas’ story… He had often heard the phrase “You can always go home […]
Read more "Meet Nicholas!"I am taking a brief hiatus and will return with new blog posts on Wednesday, May 9th. Not to worry, though. I will be out wandering on a fantastic adventure exploring a new (to me!) city and searching for art everywhere I go. I will also be enjoying my first deep dish pizza and bracing […]

Read more "Winter Park Paint Out"Today is Wednesday and that means a continuation of the ongoing saga of the Cosmic Fish! Today I’d like to share Lionel’s story… He knew he should shrug it off and continue on his merry way, but he just couldn’t let it go. It was a matter of principle! The inhabitants of this minuscule, insignificant […]

Read more "Orlando Fringe"Today is Wednesday and that means a continuation of the ongoing saga of the Cosmic Fish! Today I’d like to share Hershel’s story… He couldn’t believe his eyes! He had only been gone for a week and already the bookstore was a mess. The displays were in total disarray and there were carts upon carts […]
Read more "Meet Hershel!"When you buy a copy of O Magazine (with Oprah always on the cover), it is like you are buying a little piece of Oprah herself. This idea isn’t new! In fact, Rembrandt did the very same thing by painting himself into his own work. When you buy the masterpiece, you also buy a piece […]
Read more "Piece of the Master"Director Milos Forman passed away on Friday, April 13th and I am still mourning this great loss. “Amadeus” is easily one of my Top 10 favorite films of all time and for me it resonates on both a creative and human level. “Amadeus” is really a study in paradox and the contradictions between absolutes. Talent […]
