Dave,
Congratulations! Since you will be at the show, there is a dinner reservation Thursday evening April 29 for Stroke of Genius members and Forum members if you would like to join us. It's at McCormick & Schmick's, which is in the hotel at 8:15pm. Let me know so I can change the number of reservations if necessary.

Tim, I think I remember you. Were you with some other people??? How is it going?
The Cropsey grant was through the National Academy of Design, where I paint each day.

Wow.
What a moving portrait.
The execution is exquisite, but the composition and expression is so engaging! I just can't stop looking at it! Best of luck with the competition!

Dave, this is a beautiful and moving portrait, really extraordinary.
Do you like using a wood ground in general? Is this gesso over wood?

This was on a wood panel I bought at soho art materials on grand street. They are great. I gessoed it 3 times, so its pretty smooth. However this painting is over four other paintings that were each sanded smooth. I think I sanded more on this panel than painted. So I guess in a way it might be considered an oil ground.
