John Chamberlain, artist, mentor, friend

Chamberlain was a mixed bag, an artist making me laugh. Taught me many things. One, on how to pace. John was always in motion, pacing inside and out. Taught me how to mix it up - counterclockwise, then clockwise. Arch of Lumps (below), shot in the early morning hours at his 10 Coconut Studio, in Sarasota, Fla. Photo used for a Spanish exhibition poster (1984) and for a full page profile in Art In America.
