Recent Post: ROUND AND BROWN ROUNDANDBROWN selected were all about like me; we were all in our fifties, had grown up in the South, and were recognized as major talents in the art world. I・d never considered myself to be a major talent, and certainly my income didn・t indicate that such was the case, but it was satisfying to be included in this select group. Barbara had jokingly said that they probably just wanted to obtain the work before I died. It・s a well known fact that artists eat hot dogs and their heirs eat steak, and the museum would save a considerable sum by purchasing the painting directly from me. Barbara had also received the same commission, and I pointed out that it would be tit for tat, since one of us would be the sole heir of the other. She just laughed and said her tit was worth at least two tats any day. I had to agree; Barbara・s body has fueled my fantasies since that day at Debra・s, and thirty-six years later, she・s still one of the few things that can make me lay down my brushes.
