My daddy "Captain Richard" love creating burning or destroyed buildings. This is one of my favorites. He had since dismantled this one as everything was in a constant state of change, upgrading and reworking in the war room. It's been just over 6 months since he has passed and I miss him terribly. I hope all of his artist friends are doing well. Much love xoxo-
The Captains' daughter Mindi
Your father was a gentle genius. His work that I have had the privilege to view via his blog in my opinion was of the highest museum quality modeling.
ReplyDeleteI still often view his vignette of the ACW troopers watching one of their own painting. I'm an old retired painter, and this picture brings back lots of joy I had plying my trade for so many years.
God bless you.

ReplyDeletePeace to you and your family Mindi
It's as if I've been in a time warp and then sometimes time stands still. Thank you
DeleteIts great to see one of Capt creations again Mindi, thanks for posting it, I'm sure he'd be chuffed!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy you enjoyed it :-)
DeleteThanks for sharing this. I sometimes look back at earlier posts on my blog and see the Captain's comments. Miss his works and him very much!
ReplyDeleteXoxo
DeleteI was thinking of your dad's work only this week. A great talent, and a man sorely missed.
ReplyDeleteYes indeed xoxo
DeleteThanks for sharing, he is missed.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Engel <3

Fortunately, there is no
I'm so glad you liked it:) it will remain forever

Thank you Frank. Yes time! He will always be with me. It's nice to hear that others still think of him too. Xo
ReplyDeleteDear Mindi, it is so lovely to hear from you and see your father's work again. I used to so admire the way that he would happily recycle buildings and use them elsewhere in the war room, secure in the knowledge that they would be always work. I have an unfinished building that has elements that were directly inspired by the good Captain and reading this has inspired me to complete it over the summer holidays.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes,
Michael
This makes me happy, thank you
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing Mindi - Captain Richard's work is always worth a second (or third, or fourth) look.
ReplyDeleteThank you
DeleteGreat pic of your dad's work, I supose it's yours. It will be nice to see Captain's work from behind your eyes. Maybe, furtherly you could add some more great stuff, as your father did. Hope not had been kind of rude askin it. Be sure that we will be following it.
ReplyDeleteMy mom (Maria Isabel) passed away just a month ago and believe me, I know how do you feel.
Best wishes and blesses for you Mindi.

I'm so sorry for your loss :(
DeleteI will shoot my dads work in the war room soon-hopefully it will be in a museum as it should eventually. Xo
No question his lighting work was excellent!
ReplyDeleteChristopher
It was awesome
DeleteIt is nice to know that you will honor your father with keeping his site up. He was blessed.
ReplyDeleteXo
DeleteI was always amazed at the wonderful things that he created, and his designs often times gave me ideas and inspiration for projects on my own table. He and I discussed much on how he did things, and I was just at the point where I would look at him and say "You are a genius and I am not worthy"...He always took it in good stride....I miss him greatly....
ReplyDeleteI miss him too. He was a very talented and wonderful person. Xo
DeleteHi Mindi. Thanks for the post. We all miss your Dad a lot. He was a true craftsman, and did something no-one else did. Very best wishes and good thoughts to you all.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for the kind words! Xo
DeleteIn this manner my buddy Wesley Virgin's tale launches in this shocking and controversial video.
ReplyDeleteYou see, Wesley was in the military-and shortly after leaving-he discovered hidden, "MIND CONTROL" tactics that the government and others used to get everything they want.
As it turns out, these are the exact same secrets lots of celebrities (notably those who "became famous out of nowhere") and the greatest business people used to become rich and famous.
You probably know that you only use 10% of your brain.
That's because most of your BRAINPOWER is UNCONSCIOUS.
Perhaps this conversation has even taken place INSIDE OF YOUR very own mind... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's mind around seven years ago, while driving an unlicensed, beat-up garbage bucket of a car without a license and in his pocket.
"I'm absolutely frustrated with living payroll to payroll! When will I get my big break?"
You've taken part in those types of thoughts, right?
Your success story is going to be written. All you need is to believe in YOURSELF.
