Sam, I was really drawn into your story! It is so interesting how lives intertwine, your publishing company and the art school. Love your paintings that accompany this story. Someday can you show us how to be looser w/our paints as you were in the painting with the path to the water & pollinator sign? Beautiful as always!
Fascinating! It sounds so right that you would be bringing your approach to art to the world, adding to his and enjoying the inspiration of this special family compound with its interwoven links.
So true! Once my son started taking classes at the Art Students League, I couldn't ignore the connection and had to figure out a way to express it. Thanks, Trisha.
Beautiful article enjoyed it!
Thanks, Jane!
This is such a wonderful, thoughtful reflection that touches on so many things about art, life, and human connection. Thank you, Sam.
Thank you, Pam!
PS: It is such a gift to be as good a writer as you are an artist. 🥰
I loved reading about your connection to Hale, how you are so intertwined. Thanks!
Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece of history, Samantha.

Oh my goodness. Like minds come together and mingle over many generations. This i will read a couple more times
yes, the mingling over generations. The connections to someone I am so disconnected to is wild.
What a great read! It’s so cool how interconnected people can be, whether in plain view or deeper in background.
Glad I could figure out how to write it! haha, its all quite confusing but the connections hard to ignore.
Beautiful article. And very meaningful as we’ve spent a number of long weekends at the house in Springs with you and the Baker family!
Yes, and I hope you spend time there this year, too!
Beautifully remembered and connected and written
Thank you, Barbara
So lovely…the connections just as in nature we are all tied in some way. What a treasure! Thanks for sharing.
