Senior Tip - Look for others that still have a zest for life.
When words fail the task of describing it, you know you are in the presence of genuine talent. Yesterday, I was in just such a presence of talent. Awesome. Extraordinary. Inspirational. Fascinating. Motivational. None of these words adequately describe the talent of this 72 year old retired teacher.
He took a painting class. I saw a dozen world class ink painting he had done. He took a sculpturing class. I saw a dozen or more world class sculptured objects out of stone and wood. He took a class in welding and made several remarkable outdoor metal welding figures. His paintings, his sculptures and his welding objects are suitable for display in any art exhibit I have ever seen, and I have seen many from California, to New York to Australia. His name is Victor Druten and he attended the same high School that I did, however, he was a year behind me and light years ahead of me.
You can Google Victor Druten. Do it now. You will not be disappointed.
The image is a poor photo I took of his ink painting of Clint. I forgot to eliminate the camera reflection. My error.
After my visit with Vic, I am stoked.
