Well how much can I squeeze in here I am pretty big ya know. lol Raised Roman Catholic was going to become a priest, became a Southern Baptist Youth pastor instead and worked with the likes of Anita Bryant in the mid-seventies. A few years later I acknowledged my diddlywiddly had other preferences and so I came out to my wife and headed West to San Francisco. Left my daughter but never lost contact we reunited later, we are as close as two birds can get. Arrived in SF late1981. I immediately took up residence in an artist's commune and had my first show in 1985. It took a few years to get my chops but that first show sold out! Have had over 100 shows since and sold some 600 plus paintings so far. Very part-time, I am a caregiver and enjoy doing hospice work. I am laid back. I love my progeny, my daughter, my grandson and my lover are my life! I am anti-war and pro-peace. I love life! I believe in women and will give no space to anyone who do not treat them with respect. I am an optimist, a lover, a pragmatist, a pantheist and what I mean by that is 'I believe it will all pan out in the end!' I drink occasionally. I also believe that when you are old it is not the time to reform, reformation is for the young...I will not find Jesus at this late date...and if he has not found me either by now then I suspect he is as lost as I. The other thing I have come to understand about aging is this, it is no time to lose one sense of humor! Have a bright day and kiss somebody today. It will do you good...and maybe do some good for someone else too, who knows? Oh and don't forget the sexiest thing you own is your smile...use it stupid. Hahaha, Gramps
