Milford Zornes: An Artist's Life
"When I met Milford, he was 97 and blind. I met him on Friday and on Saturday he was going to give a watercolor workshop. Earlier that Friday, I'd asked his art dealer, "How does a painter give a workshop if he's blind?" "I don't know," the dealer said, "But he does!" I liked Zornes's paintings and asked, "Does he live around here?" Cutting to the chase, three hours later I was at Milford's door. As we shook hands, I handed him a copy of works & conversations thinking, too late, as the magazine left my hand, "How's he going to see it?""
BE THE CHANGE
Don't be afraid to follow your curiosity by asking some questions. And if a rabbit pops up, don't be afraid to follow it. It might be the March Hare.
