Artists In Italy


I think that I first met artist Suzy Olsen about ten years ago. My friend Robin Urton, an artist who I have known since college, brought Suzy Olsen to my home in Texas. Suzy lives in San Antonio, Texas, but also has a home in Tuscany, Italy. And her daughter Rebecca runs an art school SRISA in Florence, Italy.

Suzy visited her daughter in Tuscana around the Thanksgiving holiday not so many weeks ago. And one day we were actually successful in having our schedules match up for us. So, here is the image of Suzy (left) and me having lunch at a charming little place on Via San Gallo in Firenze centro on 26 November 2007.
Thank you, Suzy! It is fun to see people you have some connection to while in a foreign country – or even just away from home.
