Orange has a sense of humor, a modicum of optimism and incredible warmth. I even took a risk and painted … Read More

Certainly, sorceresses are long time inhabitants of literature, poetry, drama and the arts. But for me, the greatest of all times was Morgan le Fay. I was only 12 when I first watched her cast her spell in the original Broadway musical Camelot. She shared … Read More
