I had the privilege and honor to work with my friend Bill Riedel again recently. My friend Carol Mittelsdorf was there with her trusty pink camera to give you a rare view of our fun, I mean our work together. I hope you like it,
Like I always say, " When I grow up I want to be like Bill Riedel".
Maintain AJ

Those are keepers.
I remember when my dad first tried to teach me how to fold paint cups out of index cards. He dragged out to a site to help him lettering some trucks. I was about 12 at the time I think. I cleaned and he lettered. I never got the hang of folding a paint cup until early 90's.

I love how you can hear Bill too. I love his accent. All of her videos are pretty neat. It's like getting a peek at one of the best parts of a meet. The kind I always miss cuz I am too busy painting. Love....Jill

That was a lot of fun. Almost like being at a meet. I'm going to watch it again with a can of one shot open near by. Inspiring!

Alan/Bill, Thanks so much for making me soooo saaaad..... It really urinates me off to know that I spent 35 years in the wrong career..... All kidding aside, it is a real joy to watch two Masters doing their thing.
