Louis I Kahn




This is a posthumous portrait of my father that I was asked to paint by the Union of Estonian Architects. My father was born in Estonia and spent the first five years of his life on the island of Saaremaa (then Oesel) in the Baltic off the mainland of Estonia. This year the UES decided to hold a three-day event to celebrate my father's connection to that country, and his life and work. I had about three months to complete the portrait, let it dry, and ship it out in time for them to have it framed. It was a tight schedule but everything turned out well, thank goodness!
