Oh Marvin, this is so true. I think of this as the "Helen Keller at the water pump" effect. Teacher shows her the alphabet over and over; Helen finally "getting it" is one of my favorite movie moments. When the student is ready, the teacher appears.
This is a beautiful portrait, sensitively painted. I'm very impressed that you did it as a live demo.
