From the interview:
“I’ve lived and worked in Roselawn for about six years. What we are looking at is a concert that was held outside of our home in Roselawn. It shows concert musicians from the Cincinnati Chamber Orhestra (right) playing a body of music related to the spirit of music and myself painting while they are performing. . . (In 2020, due to COVID) the Cincinnati Chamber Orchestra was trying to find innovative ways to interact with their audiences.”
“They came up with this brilliant idea of giving me a piece of music to begin a painting on and then actually finishing, or coming close to finishing, the painting, on my front porch. We had (two) musicians from the Cincinnati Chamber Orchestra actually performing with me. . . . it was a wonderful experience.”
“Roselawn is a very clean, beautiful, attractive neighborhood. It’s a diverse neighborhood. . . it’s a great place for entrepreneurs.”
