Art Appreciation 101
Today, Leesa and I are motoring to Newport, RI, to visit my son and his family for a joyous reunion. Our first stop, however, is at the home of Lucille Soares, an accomplished artist and photographer who’s lived on Aquidneck Island for a long time. She and I met years ago when she began dating my friend of 50 years, Michael Lodington Soares, when he was stationed there as a Naval officer. Lucille and Michael married in 1980 and proceeded to travel the world, where they pursued distinctly different pastimes.
