SAGE VAUGHN
STUDIO VISIT WITH SAGE VAUGHN
A MAN OF MANY TALENTS
Broken English had the pleasure of sitting down with painter Sage Vaughn and asking him a few very fundamental questions. Short, simple and interesting. Sage isn’t short, the questions are. Simple questions with brilliant answers. We hope you enjoy this studio visit filled with imagination and color as much as we did.
