Saw this and I smiled, heck, I laughed. This is a marvelous little man. The painting, of course, is beautiful and made the subject beautiful as well. All in a 5x7!
I love this. He looks like he could easily be a curmudgeony character out of a Dicken's novel. You certainly do paint a story. By the way, the October Southwest Art finally came to my favorite bookstore and I loved the article and that was a lovely photo of you!
