I agree on that and D. G.'s radiologist portrait is much more charming and at ease than countless other portraits of note worthy professionals. I suppose the "in the element" depiction as well as the man's relaxed countenance play a big part in the down to earth feel of this work.

Are you going to paint this portrait of your foundation crew boss? With all the memories and sentiments that are attached to this individual, I can't imagine a painter better suited for the task.
