P.S. November 2010: More life under the bridge since I wrote the above. Lowest lows, highest highs. Have my apartment in Santa Monica CA and now also have a house in NW MA in a small town called Greenfield. Bicoastal man. I commute to NYC on weekends and sell my art on the corner of Prince and West Broadway. Am considering an offer from a gallery for a show next spring. Driving back to CA for a break after new years. Still self employed after all these years. There are more than a few good people from my Denbigh past that I'd like to give a big hug to. Be well, -O
