Three years in the making, the "Master of Light" documentary about George Morton, made its world premier at the highly competitive SXSW Film Festival in Austin, Texas, March 11-20, 2022. The film highlights George's unique journey as he ascends his childhood world of unforgiving poverty, followed by 10 years in federal prison, where he taught himself to paint. Since his release 8 years ago, George became the first African American to graduate from the prestigious Florence Academy of Art. He has travelled the world, and in recent years, most extensively in Egypt, where he is discovering the genesis of the design principles that in later centuries informed the Renaissance in Europe. His speed dial is full of fascinating people and artists from all over the world.
