“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue center light pop and everybody goes "Awww!”'- Jack Kerouac

I really like the texture in this, and how the tree is partly hidden behind. Thanks for inspiring me again today Miriam!
Hello Miriam,
We have never met, but I was a student of your father's at Culver-Stockton in 1965. He had a tremendous influence on me and I will never forget being in his class. I will never forget his comment to his students on the first day of class. "So, you think you have signed up for a course on CREATIVE WRITING, no you have signed up for a class on Joel Climenhaga. I was going though some old poems that I had written in his class and remembering how wonderful my experience was with your dad. I remember your mom and spending some evenings at their home with other students. I am always late in saying thank you, so I want to say thank you to you, for your parents. You have established yourself in your own right, and your paintings are beautiful. I am now retired, living in northwest Georgia, and eventually will be moving to Virginia.
