4. The complexity, which Cenac is aware of & goes out of his way to emphasize is that he came to Stewart with expectations of mentorship

5. Cenac's desire for mentor partially a natural young artist thing but also rooted in fact his father killed when he was 4.

6. Added to Cenac's loss of father is that, by his account, his mother was controlling & he became estranged from her.

7. The expectation of mentorship was a reasonable one, and not just for personal reasons. Mentorship is major way people advance.
