  • Portrait of Perry with a bokken, reflecting his interest in fencing. He came to Asheville in 1990. “What I have always loved about these mountains are hemlocks, blueberries, shared knowledge, snow, plants and wildlife, midwives, creeks, rivers, swimming holes, co-ops, art, music, dancing, gatherings, festivals and community.”
