Wow, Russ! These are terrific! How neat to see you in a photo with William S. Burroughs and your paintings of him. I love your use of color in the seahorse as well. And Notre Dame burning—wow. I’m looking forward to seeing you in a couple of weeks!
With love from your sister, Nancy
Thanks so much! I’m looking forward to seeing you, too!
