Wm. R. Foust - can I still have a Hall Pass?
Wm R. Foust, was my art teacher in High School. He is a unusual person. Hanging out in his dept. and being in his classes kept me from ‘drowning’. He helped me realize my abilities, not just to draw and to paint. He encouraged all of us to talk about our ideas and the books that we’d read. Sometimes he would suggest a book. The one day I discovered I had the courage to take the risk. I could begin trying to make my dreams into realities. I’ve dedicated an earlier project to him although I doubt if he knows about it. The trouble is, I don’t know where he is anymore, as he retired sometime ago.
I know, (I really wish), that you’re out there somewhere, so, I thank you Bill.
Kind’ve like my math teacher at primary school - Mr Lyons. I hated maths, but he had these really cool laminated cards of all the primary colours and each colour determined a different skill level.
I always wanted to get the red cards, because that was my favourite colour and they were shiny hahahaha. After that I stopped hating maths and simply didn’t like it.
