He was such a humble, loving person, and the first time he came to my studio I had just done a small painting of an old vintage phone. He loved it! We talked like I was one of his colleagues—never condescending, and always incredibly insightful. Have never met a man like him.

His work was really so autobiographical that knowing about his life adds a lot to understanding and appreciating his painting. And I'm glad you like the photos. The quality is not great, but perhaps you will seek out other sources that give a better reflection of the real work - or see the real thing!Nancy Natalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03325421420384484035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9064353933668888339.post-13761189082369436132009-01-30T20:32:00.000-05:002009-01-30T20:32:00.000-05:00Thank you from me as well.

I have known Guston's work for years but your piece filled in the holes for me, when he changed his style and expression and his early life experiences. The photos intermixed with your writing have been wonderful!Blue Sky Dreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12405128176114875597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9064353933668888339.post-41984115693190332292009-01-30T13:36:00.000-05:002009-01-30T13:36:00.000-05:00Dear Amber and Leslie,My father always told me I s...Dear Amber and Leslie,<BR/>My father always told me I should have been a teacher so I guess I'm finally getting it out of my system now. I hope these "Inspiration" posts aren't too pedantic, but when I get rolling, I feel like I have to do right by the artist I'm talking about. Also, I think that I feel the need to explain just why I am inspired by their work when it is so different from my own and there's apparently so much difference between each of the three "master" artists I've written about - at least on the surface. <BR/><BR/>I'm glad to hear that you've gotten something out of the post and that you may look at Guston's work a little differently now.Nancy Natalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03325421420384484035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9064353933668888339.post-92183579803741500802009-01-30T13:22:00.000-05:002009-01-30T13:22:00.000-05:00Thank you Nancy!
