With the help and connections, of folklorist, historian, and writer Dr. Henry Glassie I am working on a trip to Turkey. I don't want to get ahead of myself here and jinx things but this June I am planning a trip to Kutayha where Mehmet Gursoy lives, works, and teaches. My hope is to some day in the next year or two return for a more extended visit and learn some of the tequniques of what I consider to be some of the most beautiful and refined brushwork in the world. This is all just a work in progress but I am keeping my fingers crossed!
