Florida state road 23 Nov., 1970

What were you doing in 1970? You might not have even been born yet. I knew very little about Florida at that time. I was living in Los Angeles, Calif. I had decided I wanted to further my education I was expectantly waiting for something to happen in my young life. That summer I attended Art Center College of Design (before it moved to its current location) and felt I was ready for more. Unfortunately, I was put on a waiting list and, I didn’t want to wait. So, I applied to Calif. College of the Arts (Oakland, Calif.) and was accepted.

Even though David Hammons was making a name for himself in L.A. before I moved to S.F., there was a bit of an art scene in L.A. What did Miami have going on at that time? Nothing but dreams…
