I'm devastated by this news. Carl is an outstanding person blessed with tremendous talent and great humanity. The world is a far better place because of his presence. Getting to know him personally has been a true blessing for me. I pray for his speedy and full recovery.

All of us who have had the pleasure of an extended critique from Carl (I must say handholding on my part) knows what a kind and most generous person he is.

We are with you Carl, in thoughts and prayers and as tough as you are - you will have the great spirit to stand up to this large challenge. I pray that you have great doctors and support staff to lean on through your treatment - and you know the portrait community will be behind you. Through the miles and cyber waves - I am thinking of you each day.

Denise

Carl, I hope with all my heart that you get good news. It's got to be hard to think about anything else.

Having met Carl last year and having exchanged many an email with him, I was shocked and deeply saddened by this news. Carl, hang in there and fight.... Is there anything we can do?

I have a big email folder full of advice, hints, ideas and what can only be called general all-around brilliance from Carl. He is an extraordinarily generous, kind, funny, imaginative and gifted artist.

Carl, I hope you know how many people care about you and sincerely hope all goes well for you in the weeks and months to come. All love and prayers going out to you, my friend.

Carl,

We've never met, but I have to tell you I've always been totally impressed by your self-portrait. My thoughts and wishes are with you.
