Congratulations Tony! When Chris said "PSA" in the title, I was thinking ...I didn't know you did pastels, but wow - it's for the Portrait Society! Fantastic! Just think only 10 and you are one.

I hope we both do well in the top thirteen!
Congratulations Tony!!! I can't wait to see your painting in DC. You are a remarkable strong painter. I was not surprised at all with you being chosen in the top finalists.
Thanks for those close-ups; they are delicious!
Best,
Garth

Allan,
Yes, but SHHHH! Quiet! This thread is in honor of Tony, and deservedly so.
Other familiar Portrait Artist Forum names on the winners' list include Linda Brandon, David Kassan, Marvin Mattelson, Sergio Ostroverhy, and Chris Saper. Tony and myself are finalists and delivering our work to the PSOA conference for further judging. Linda and David have been awarded merit prizes, and Marvin, Sergio. and Chris are receiving special certificates of recognition, each.
Garth

Congratulations, Tony! Thanks also for posting the closeups.
The head has an elegant, classical look about it that makes me wonder if you studied at the Water Street Atelier. Did you?
I look forward to meeting you at PSA!

Thanks for the compliment Michele but I did not go to Water Street.
I studied at California Art Institute and I subscribe to the Sargent, Sorolla, and Zorn school of classicism.
