Congratulations, Sergio!

I know you will gain much good publicity with your painting! And of course future business!

A gorgeous venue.

Nice to see you again,

Dear Sergio,
a lot, I mean really a lot of congratulations, especially since I was number 541 entry and sadly collected my painting in the rejected pile (dealing with rejection is always hard, but it's better when you can blame the high numbers).
Your selection is highly deserved and I am looking forward to see the show this week.
I'll try again next year
Ilaria

Dear Sergio

Huge congratulations to you! This particular painting being celebrated, captured my imagination two years ago, not only for it's dynamic impact and scale, but for it's uniqueness and originality. I knew then this group portrait would resonate with the world, and turn heads eventually. This is great news for you and those who get to see it live.

Garth

Dear Sergio,

I am very happy for you and also like to congratulate you for your wonderful success. I love the idea of putting the city grid behind the fire fighters, great idea!

May this lead to even better success for you.

Sergio--

This is terrific news! I was fortunate to have you show me your work a couple of years ago, accompanied by some good conversation. I knew when I saw it that it was just a matter of time before the right audience and the right venue would come your way.

This is just the beginning of more good things to come. Good luck as always!

--Tom

Great Thanks for all the positive remarques,
in fact London is a Terrific place to be already, you receive so much energy from all the pubs (Beer and World Cup , then when you enter at the National Portrait Gallery and suddenly you see Van Dyck, Holbein and in the same building your own picture... You understand that so much stuff to learn yet...
