Yay! I have been in anticipation of this unveiling for some time. It looks great, Alex!

Could you please post a close up of a part of the jacket?

Thanks, everyone!

Allan, yes, it is too bad Denmark is so far from Philadelphia USA.! It is so much fun to pop in on people and see what they are working on in their studios. I like it, too, when other artists visit me. Someday I'm going to see your work in person.

Bonfim, thank you! You are always there to be supportive and I really appreciate it.

Wow, Cynthia, I rarely hear from you in this section. I'll take it as a good sign.

Hi, Lacey, thanks so much. Sorry about the delay in posting this. I'll post some closeups tomorrow.

Alex,

I looked up those big words and I thought my head was going to explodrahedron.

That's one fine painting, I bet you're mum is real proud of you.

I can just picture all those tetrahedrons and octohedrons erupting from your skull! It's exactly how I feel when my mother starts talking about her theories. At least she knows what she is talking about!

Alex, she looks like a little woman who could be holding the whole globe rather then a balsa shape, so positive and assertive.
My feeling is also that you had to hold back your mother/daughter relationship in order to paint her in this more official and formal situation.
In a sense I see more ease in the couple of architects you painted lately. I tried to paint my mother last year, but I found it difficult even to look her straight in the eyes.
Anyway this is a very complex and elaborated work which shows off all your skill.
Beautiful
Ilaria
