Turner was truly an artist-in-
residence. He painted in our
gallery frequently, often daily.
For him, staring at an empty
canvas for maybe an hour
was routine–just staring.
Later, he would drop his
brush into a paint jar and
begin. He would say to me,
“Mercer, I like to start with
the big brush to get the big idea
down frst. To get the spirit of
the occasion, the introduction.
Then I work the details.”
Kisha and Company by Andrew Turner.
Turner loved these unusual knitted shoes. He
bought them in Martha’s Vineyard. He wore
them at the end of each day while he relaxed.
