I hired Calvin as a consultant after I met him two years ago at this same conference. He's become a friend and mentor to me.

Linda sent me this cool photo of Me and my painting Idol.

If anyone has any cool pics, please send them to me, i lost my camera down there.

Here's Chris Saper's demo of fellow artist Teresa Mattos (my apologies if there's some distortion. I photographed it on an angle to minimize glare and then straightened it out somewhat.)

Also I've attached a photo of a demo in progress by Michael Shane Neal.

I really had a great time! Met a lot of interesting people, de lectures and demo's were wonderful. I hope I will be able to go back next year! It is also nice to have met a lot of you guys from the forum, which makes the forum even better. I am very glad I went.

Thanks Garth for taking a photo of me with John de la Vega, he gave me some great pointers, I can really work with. Could you send that one to my email address in a larger size?

Wow, that weekend went so quickly I wish I had had more time to visit with everyone! Here are a few pics - Michele, Cynthia and Calvin Goodman; the lovely Teresa Mattos, Ann Kenyon, Mo Greene and me; Jamie McMahon, Ann, Joann and John Ennis...

Chris--

Your demo of Teresa Mattos is great...another coup!
