I met Jeff Jones a long time ago at the now defunct Atlanta Fantasy Fair, he was a kind and gentle being, a fellow artist and myself caught up with him between the hotel and showroom floor. After embarrassing ourselves by doing the Bill & Ted, I mustered up the courage to show him, a painted piece, I had just finished. I fumbled and fiddled with this huge case and since he was heading to his table, he paused for but a moment. He gave me this little unassuming ticket with his address on it, and said, when I have something that I am proud of, I should send it to him! I NEVER had the chance. Then as now, I'm still not worthy! But I will keep trying!
"No piece of art is ever a failure, because you never come away with less than you started with."-Jeffrey Catherine Jones
