"Never met a color I didn't like. Before I emerged as more than a gleam in V's eye, I'd lapse into kaleidoscope moments imagining my presentation. Artists are a touchy lot, and I hated to impose, but I felt entitled to some influence over my own creation. So I waited for her to dip her brush, then whispered, 'V, watercolor's a lot like the Tango. Here, take my flipper.' We embraced and moved to the rhythm in a sensuous struggle for control, then blended in the passionate undercurrent of body, mind and spirit. As my image emerged we both smiled in relief, because watercolor is also a lot like life: get it right the first time 'cause there's no second chance. Hmm, if I do say, I turned out the mirror image of me. Thanks, V." SC
