My dad introduced me to Leonardo's work when I was a kid. We talked about it for hours. Today I'm thinking of both of them.

My grandmother loved Leonardo. When she died we played their work at the funeral. Now they're both gone. Strange how connected it all is.

From a lifelong fan

Leonardo once said something in an interview that changed how I thought about my own work. I've never forgotten it.
