      It was bringing back such fond memories as I was pulling the images together 🙂 I could almost hear the characters in my head!

    I can hear the voices in my head.

  3. Daws was my mentor. I took private lessons and his workshop for many years from the late 70’s through the 1980’s. He helped me in so many ways. He was a brilliant teacher and a kind and wonderful human being. Barbara Barri (formerly from KZLA 93.9FM Los Angeles)

      I didn’t know that he was a teacher. How wonderful that you were able to study with him! An amazing teacher can change your life in so many ways, at least that has been my experience. Thank you so much for sharing! 🙂
