I haven’t felt like painting or drawing since Nov 24.’ I sold 5 paintings in 24,’ I got one accepted in the Coos Art Museum’s Spring 24’ exhibit. But haven’t felt like making art for months.
Colescott was highly disciplined. Before he became famous he taught middle school and painted until 2 AM.

Colescott was a student of Lèger in Paris. I earned quality ed from the U of AZ. They bought my art. My profs were awesome: Barbara Rogers, James G Davis, Bailey Doogan, Harmony Hammond, Bruce McGrew, Mikelle Omari Tunkara, Alfred Quiroz & Robert Reich, Paul Ivey, David Soren Josh Goldberg and more.
