Homeless

Chapter 35

Aug. and Sept of '91


Homeless is the Artist.
Homeless is he; for he is brave.

   I had bought a copy of the book,
Living By You Brush Alone by Edna Wagner Piersol.  I knew that to become an Artist I would have to risk everything.  I did.  I became homeless, my sales went straight up.  I sold my first paining for a price running into three figures -- even getting 400 dollars and 300 dollars on the same day.  That was the day I left Chico for the last time.
