I echo Carlos's comments re your blacks and reds: your handling of the colors and value transitions is superlative. Would it be possible for you to give your admiring fans some details of the colors and mixes used ?

I just spotted this one, Garth - and what a lovely portrait you've painted here. He radiates warmth, intelligence and good sense. Those hands are marvelous. I congratulate you!

Hi Garth!

This is gorgeously painted! So much warmth and good humor conveyed. I especially like the sensitivity with which you've portrayed his age (the way you've handled the wrinkles! ) Another one of yours to study!
