I was going through my memory files and found this thank you note from Ray Bradbury regarding a painting I'd done. The art illustrated a quote RB wrote for the Thousand Oaks Library. His note still makes me happy!
In the artwork I incorporated a family photo of Ray at three years old, placing the planet mars in his hand, and his feet in the clouds. He subsequently requested and used the image for personal use, and had the painting hanging behind the desk in his office.
I never missed one of his talks at the library! He was always inspiring. He never graduated from college but he said the library was his university! Brilliant man.
