Thanks, Pam, Ilaria, Allan, Mischa, Sharon and Linda! It was wonderful seeing all these portraits together in one room. Just standing in the center of the gallery, I realized that portraits have a tremendous impact, a combination of the artist's vision and the presence of the individual looking out from the canvas.

Last night, in conjunction with the exhibit, Garth and I did 2-hour demos at the art center. I'm hoping Garth will post the photos of us with our portraits. Garth painted the Chairman of the Board while I painted the daughter of a patron of the Art Center. It was nervewracking but fun at the same time.
