Oops. I must have hit the new topic button instead of the post reply button. Actually my comment was in reply to the thread that Chris Sapier started about the Opera singer Paul Potts. I am still in awe of that immense talent and persistence. I am glad it finally paid off for him.

I think that so much of Paul's experience can relate to us (well at least to me).. and one of my favortie teaching quotes of the day:

Have the humility to practice, and the audacity to perform.

Did you notice the flattering camera angles? Something to take note of as portrait artists.
