A SPIRITUAL ODYSSEY
A Life of Creativity, Work, Study and Collecting
Joseph L. Kagle, Jr.
The Writings of Joe Kagle

2001 Pixel Portrait

"More than anything, my Fulbright experience in the study of Chinese painting has led me into some profound changes in my outlook on the world. The lessons learned about the relationships of man to man, man to nature, man to his demons, and an individual's techniques of how to harness the power of one's ch'i (spirit) to "make the beauty I love be what I do" have stayed with me for a lifetime."
Joe Kagle, 1966
