to be an artist,” he states. “I feel blessed that<br />
God has given me this talent, and I give Him<br />
the glory.<br />
“Some things Col. Immler said have stuck<br />
with me,” Clint says. “He would say, ‘paint<br />

paint.’ To paint realistic the way I paint, you<br />
have to understand what you see.”<br />

Vignettes. The artist can be followed on<br />
