At 104, he's still in love with life, still in love with his wife, and still in love with his art. And he's not alone. Major museums and art collectors worldwide covet his work.  Come along for an exclusive look inside the life of artist Harold Rotenberg.

Rotenberg isn't the only artist still finding inspiration later in life. At 85, artist Harold Garde says his creative spirit is stronger than ever and he continues to find new ways to create eye-popping art.

    Harold, you are a wonderful person and role-model.  You are giving me the courage and energy to believe that I can continue to enjoy painting for many more years.
