.An afternoon with Geoffry Meyers by Anne Whitney
Meeting Jeffrey was a unique and wonderful experience.
It was my last stop on the Sebastian studio tour.
Walking through the house, out into the garden, and through the studio, I was greeted by Jeffrey working on the beginnings of a female sculpture.
He invited me to sit and we commenced talking about sculptural techniques, form and function. I had spent a year at the Art Student League of New York working with sculptor Jose Hovannes. We had a lot to talk about.
Before I left we discussed his paintings as he ate a bowl of cereal in the kitchen. I asked if I could take his photograph since I found him an interesting subject and that is what I love to do best.
Portraits!
I thanked Jeffery for a lovely afternoon, went home and finished his portrait in just a few hours. Don’t you love the tee shirt?
GOAT, greatest of all times!
Yes it was.
