Nol was a friend and neighbor. He could be gnarly, contentious, self-absorbed, and, like most artists, temperamental. He also had a great heart, an open mind, and a questing Spirit, and was always open to new ideas and "rooting" for the Underdog. His stunning work speaks for itself, far better than I. Nol was comfortable with himself, and a great "host" and raconteur, always curious to see around the next bend, and (almost) always upbeat. Also, unfailingly polite, and sensitive to those in need of assistance. Nol was a master, in many ways, of the Art of living well, and he shared his ebullience and joy with all who knew him. RIP, friend ~ you, and your unimaginable work, were a Force to be reckoned with!
