And, such a nice person! I had the privilege of meeting him when he taught here in Seattle.<br /><br />Your post inspired me to pull up all your prior blogs with "Charles Reid" content. What a great way to spend a Friday morning...not a cure for my bad case of covid-fatigue, but it sure helped!<br /><br />I am motivated to pull out my CR books and DVDs and get to practicing!<br /><br />JudithSilverMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12805572131213530740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2891643331061427318.post-41886064553324396692020-10-16T08:15:15.352-07:002020-10-16T08:15:15.352-07:00Thanks Hap.Thanks Hap.Peter Wardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07451951778074071828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2891643331061427318.post-36369573794829902072020-10-16T06:30:17.332-07:002020-10-16T06:30:17.332-07:00Wonderful post Peter!

I would have loved to have taken a workshop by him. I think there is a constant struggle between detail and loose in most of us, I know there certainly is with me! Charles seemed to have reached that fulcrum point where his balance was as near perfect as you can manage. I am one of those who is slow to absorb new information and techniques...it takes me a long time to make small advances, but as long as I am learning and enjoying the challenges I'll keep plodding on! Thanks to friends like you I do keep being encouraged and "enthused"(is that even a word?) about the medium. Keep up the good work my friend!<br />haphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09616728116181059642noreply@blogger.com
