Good to hear about the interest in your work. That must be fulfilling. It seems your hard work is paying off. As to wondering why you do it, my only answer, like it is for me, is that our work is a fundamental connection to the world around us. It is our purpose to add beauty to the world and…

Well, I didn’t take that walk this morning and get that bagel. Despite my best night’s sleep in forever, I awoke feeling sluggish with a slight sinus headache. Still hung over from the surgery.
