James Rue:  

Life After HS I headed for Wisconsin 4 wonderful, long, years of higher "learn'n and such". Took my sheepskin and newly acquired art talent to Boston only to find out, work was hard! After a year or so as an Art Director for Container Corporation designing pretty packages for whoever - it was time to start my own firm. Been unemployed/self-employeed for about 40 years and working very hard at it too. Lived outside of Boston in Harvard from '68 to 1991, sold most of the business to my employees and moved the balance to Ft. Lauderdale. I maintain a few clients in the Bahamas, some..remote one internationally and the Eastern United States. Married and divorced along the way. Have two daughters with expensive tastes. I take my Yellow Lab (Kyle) to the office everyday and to most client meetings when he's bored. He doesn't require answers to any questions and he loves my work (always, loves my work!). He never asks to use of my cell phone and I don't ask to eat out of his dish. I split my spare time between finishing a few pieces of art I've started...Expand for more
