May 29 – Harry Smith’s Birthday

Harry Smith brought me to New York in the 90’s in search of his Enochian Watchtowers and his magical art and inspiration and it is serendipitous to be in NYC on his birthday still as inspired as I was over two decades later for another chapter of a new artistic adventure. Thanks Harry. BWHFrom
