It was mostly the beautiful smile that inspired me -- that & his passion for creating paintings. I'm 83 & have a few single women friends -- if he's interested?? Thanks to his loving son & family for keeping this fantastic man happy/loved. He's in good hands. -

Passion is inspiring! I love his passion for his work. With every stroke of the keys he passionately creates images that reveal vision that most of us do not have. He shares a vision of stunning beauty, whimsy, and vastness. Thank you for your passion and sharing it with us. -

He is a beautiful, sensitive, inspirational man. He is loved by his son and everyone around him. Although he gives a lot to others they are in turn making him a happy man which is wonderful because so many older people are ignored and left alone. We should all be so fortunate to have his attitude and be in the world of art when we are 97 years old....or even 67. -
Love It
VERY COOL! His art is incredible, but his spirit is the real inspiration. I wish I could see the art displayed. The trees in autumn were my favorite, partly because I love that season, and partly because I love nature. My garden is my art. I hope I will be able to continue creating when I'm his age! Heck, I'm only in my 60s, lots of years to go! Thanks for showing me what's possible, Grandpa! -

Kate mcLoughlin
his gentle man is not only an inspiration, his artwork is reminiscent of an ancient style of painting called pointelle. I love it!! I would like to buy a piece (or two, three :D ) -

Grandpa moves through life with more soul and spirit than too many of us. Where he happily pursues his creative magic with little regard to his failing eyesight we are more apt to complain about our trivial woes and give up. The world is a better place with Grandpa in it. Thank you, Grandpa, you are a delight. -

Inspiration and passionate purpose has no age restriction. How amazingly wonderful is this dear man! -
Linda Gironda
I love that he still has that twinkle in his eye and an abundance of creativity to share. Reminded me of my Dad who was also an artist and how wonderful it is to be around creative and kind people. Thank you for sharing this film. -

Such awesome art in the face of visual challenge! A senior befriending and employing the computer for his continued artistic expression! Grandpa's amazing art!!! Grandpa's family's total love, respect and admiration of him! -
Nadine
First and foremost, how beautiful his artwork is, and how beautiful he is. His smile went straight into my heart. And, of course, his total faith in and focus on being able to create, then doing it, and sharing it, without wasting any of the precious time he has left on this earth feeling sorry for himself or doubting himslef. I will be sharing this video. Thank you for telling us about Grandpa! -

Very inspired by Grandpa's enthusiasm to learn and adapt to new things and his passion for painting. He is truly a great example to show that age is never a barrier IF we want to do something! Way to go Grandpa and God bless you with good health and happiness! -

I am truly touched by the clip. Its about life. Let the Creativity flow - it needs mind & passion, not age. Another point I want to share with all those who are not computer literate. Learn Computers take help, what ever, but do not miss the blessings of the 21st Century. Be Blessed. Thanks and salute to DAILY GOOD.ORG. -

When we are open to our passions we share the most wonderful aspects of creation at any age. This is a very poignant story about one man who is an inspiration to anyone called to do what we love. Thank you Hal! -
Dawn
What a great inspiration to the rest of us. We are always at just the right age to do whatever we are called to do. Thanks for the perfect timing of this video. Keep on painting.
