My favorite Artists

My wife & I recently visited New York City and of course went to our favorite Museums. The Met, MOMA, the Guggenheim and a new favorite. The Neue Galerie on 5th Avenue near the Met & Guggenheim. What a great trip. It inspired me to "jot" down some of my favorite artists, the artists that have inspired me since I started painting in 1962 in High School and then later at KC Art Institute.
