Excerpts:

...Delulio and Hansegger lived in the beautiful Berkshires of Massachusetts. Delulio had been a commercial artist in New York City and Chicago, but the lure of the countryside was too much for him to resist. The bond began in 1974 when Delulio asked Hansegger if he would like to see his art gallery. The master artist noticed the younger artist’s triangle series, Delulio’s new form of art. “Let me see them; you have something very unique here.” Their relationship developed into an exceptional camaraderie...

...Although the Delulios moved to Houston in 1977, the protégé/mentor relationship remained binding. The two corresponded for years, each inspiring the other, until the master was laid to rest in 1989. Delulio continues his commercial and fine art from his country place in the Brazos Valley where he lives with his wife Cindy, a former marketing communications and public relations manager for Halliburton and Bechtel. They are retired now, but they still remember the days of the textbook friendship that only happened because of fate...
