Where did you grow up?
I spent my youth between Gainesville Texas and lake Texhoma. A great amount of time was exploring trails ,fishing holes from the oldtimers and boating.
When did you start painting?
Back in the early 70s I would get in trouble doodling during class,daydreaming was a pastime as if I were watching a movie.The first painting I sold for five dollars then used the money for bubble gum and gas for my boat.Gas would last almost a month.
Art Teachers?
I didn't know any back in those days of youth. I spent a lot of time playing with a variety of clay in all sorts of colors from the lake. In later years I found John Held,Ray Johnson,Shozo Shimmato and Carlo Pittore. One could call them Dadaists,later I found myself on stage at the Dallas Museum of Art with Held and Shozo,that's when I knew where that drum was playing.
I follow their insight even today. They are inspiring . They speak without spoken words.

I see online paintings from the early 80s from time to time.Unknown who sales them.

Act,make dresses,write more,play music.
I heard you wrote a Opera?
Yes about a thousand pages long.I store it in a box and forgot to number the pages,a year ago the box fell down a flight of stairs I have yet to open it since.
Frank stays Frank. And Frank Sinatra stays Frank Sinatra.
Frank Jr. becomes Frank Sr. and the Frank formerly known as Frank Jr.'s son becomes Frank Jr. ... If that makes any sense. Alternatively if Frank Sr. was the first Frank ie Frank the first, then the answer is Frank III ie Frank the third. Same as Queen Elizabeth II.
