Larry Roberts was a Chicago-based artist best known for his abstract paintings with rich colors and textures. I was able to interview Laurie Roberts, his wife, about how he created his work and how she is carrying on his legacy. This will be a two part interview. This week I have Laurie sharing about Larry's life and his work. In next week's episode, Laurie will share her experience in the design field and how she is translating Larry's work into different media.
