Geez, your results were posted a month ago, sorry I missed it. I've had the pleasure of meeting Garth myself and viewing his work in person. I didn't see this one, but can only imagine its power up close. If he entered more competitions, we would have to start settling for honorable mentions.

Well deserved (altho your work deserves more).

Jimmie, may I offer very belated thanks to you!

In International Artist Magazine showcase.
 

I just saw today that International Artist magazine, issue 45 (October/November 2005) is showcasing the 2005 Honors Awards from The Art Of The Portrait, International Portrait Competition, on pages 27 though 29. This portrait figures on page 29 (along with Tony Pro's. Congratulations Tony!!!).

It's a modest presentation, but a first for me (since all that colossal Leonardo da Vinci's Horse sculpture publicity of about fifteen years ago. I thought I used up my fiteen minute allowance back then!).

The images I posted here in this thread are much better in fidelity than the magazine reproduction, though.

Enjoy!

Garth
