                            Terrific painting, Carol! A sense of his personality is shining through – this is clearly a very likeable person. I like the brushwork and loosely painted background too.

                                Thanks Dave – yes he is so kind – I feel so bad for him — it’s 10,000$ a month keeping him alive – he don’t hv to pay for it – or he wouldn’t be alive!

                                                This is really well-done! It’s been mentioned already, but you’ve pulled his personality through the painting in a very believable way, especially with his eyes, and the portrait in general has a lot of life to it. I wish him the best
