| Biggest Artistic Inspiration |
The biggest art inspiration was meeting Miss Betty Piersons Parsons, Betty Parsons Gallery, in 1980 at her gallery and getting a personal tour of Mark Rothko paintings, works by Jackson Pollock, Cleve Gray, and a new artist that Paul discovers to be one of his favorites, an obscure collagist named Anne Ryan. Paul purchases a Betty Parsons wood construction from the art dealer that she made. A man that looks like Santa Claus comes into the gallery with a sack of wood construtctions for Paul to pick.
Later that year Paul meets Portrait Artist Alice Neel and sits for her in her living room. There is a bronze cat she made on her mantle, and paintings of many notable people lining her floors in stacks, like Marisol Escobar. |
