At the last Putney Painters session... I opened my American Artist issue up to the page that asks "Is Richard Schmid the Most Powerful Influence..." and held it up to Richard and asked, "Can you answer this question?"

Richard smiled and his eyes lit up. Then he rolled his eyes - at me. I'm usually causing trouble there.

Personally, I think the answer is yes. While there are many artists that have a huge influence on art today, Richard may have the edge. He's a great guy too.
