Duggie Fields: the last time i was with Duggie in london, 2019, he had just finished chemo and we were walking around one of his favorite neighborhood places, the earls court cemetery. it was a beautiful day and we found ourselves chatting about the first time we met... decades ago when my twin sister (jennifer) and i were 10 years old, traveling with our parents (joan & jack) and meeting the coolest people in town.
Duggie Fields: he wrapped us all up in color and confidence. his inviting and beautiful nature decorated all who stood near him. the fluidity of Duggie’s artistic eye led us on a dreamscape adventure enveloped in his elegant, creative architectural scenes.
Duggie Fields: see you “Around the Corner”!
