He Painted an Endearing Portrait
As usual … a fun, nostalgic and naked glimpse of life. This time he weaves a pandemic era family values win over world wide shut down.
I really enjoy his situations, characters and stories. This time into an art I have always envied. He paints a great picture of an entire family enterprise to help the patriarchs start themselves into a new era.

I was amazed at just how good this book is.
I wrote it and this was the first time I have just read it - research; the characters are reappearing in a new book.
