I'm the artist who was commissioned to create the portrait of the Commander of the US Coast Guard that the author mentioned, at just about half the price of the previous one, and much less than the $45K range that was often mentioned in the article for some of the other portraits. I guess I'm one of the newer artists who are charging less, as Alex noted.

The Coast Guard told me in advance that the Washington Post reporter might be calling me for an interview, but since my pricing didn't bolster his argument, he decided against it.
