William Eggleston on Sunday Morning
« on: June 20, 2016, 03:41:00 PM »
I don't know if everybody will be able to view this. Yesterday morning there was an interview with William Eggleston and his daughter on the CBS show Sunday Morning.
In it, you learn a lot about the man, his life and his family.

enjoy

He is a fascinating figure for sure. I have wondered if eccentric people become artists or if artists 'decide' to be eccentric?

I don't know but I know I always laugh at the pretend artist who pretend to be eccentric. They always smear it on too thick :)
