Starting early on a Sunday morning in the park while listening to the birds and watching waterfowl navigate the wetland, jump started our conversation about living in this complicated world as artists. We talked about art making in this moment – how ego, life experiences, meditating, and economics all drive our art and pragmatism. Our attempts to put words together while trying to navigate watercolors, we discovered early on, was somewhat futile. I do think Leslie managed this far better than I, who was quite taken by a duck.
