I love this piece, Lucian. I live with a fine collection of Lucille Howard and Helen McCarthy landscapes so I think I understand what you mean about color. The color in my paintings are different from Jack Whitten’s, but the light that’s captured in them is a portal to long-ago moments in places I’ve never been.
Thanks, Debbie. Jack was an extraordinary guy. I'm happy that seeing the story about his paintings showing in a NY gallery tweaked my memory and gave me a chance to write about him.
Wonderful piece...thank you so much for sharing
I love this story and I’m glad you’re still learning! Thanks Tracy! ❤️
Wonderful essay Lucian. You managed to pack this one with so much goodness I’ll have to read it again and again. 💜
And best of all, Tracy!
Lovely piece. Thank you
Good one, Lucian.
You have lived a fortunate and fabled life, Lucian. Who should play you in the movie?
Bill Murray would get it. He's an old friend, and I could tell you a story about...
What a terrific story! I love it.

I loved reading about him...and those days in soho. (I really do love NY.)
Enjoyed the article.
Thank you. Jack Whitten was quite a guy. I'm glad that I'm a writer and could pay him that tribute.
Beautiful.
Thanks for the Kenny Dorham story, made me look him up since I've always liked his playing. A great article from his hometown paper: https://www.austinchronicle.com/music/2018-09-14/trumpet-colossus-kenny-dorham-towers-alongside-the-jazz-gods/
You are truly blessed to live surrounded by art and a loving artist.
Beautiful way to start my day ...
Love this one. Especially the ending.
Loved this! So happy you've come full circle, Lucian. 💗 Hi, Tracy!
