Grath, congratulations, but I am not surprised at all. You are simply getting the recognition your work deserves. Now, just get that website going, and everything will be just right! All kidding aside, you've heard it before, but having a website up before the competiton goes further will attract non-artists viewing the Smithsonian site easy access to your work.

So everyone reading this, let's nag the hell outta Garth until he gets one up!

Hope your piece goes further into the competition, good luck buddy!

Thanks Edgar! We certainly cannot predict the future, but for the present, your best wishes give some hope.

Garth

Congratulations, Garth! I know I already told you over the phone, but I might as well tell you again: it's a great painting, and it pushes the envelope of "what is a portrait?" which is, I think, one of the things this show wants to do. Now you have a 50% chance of getting to the finals!

Congarthulations,
I wish that I could see this masterpiece in person. No matter how often I look at it it always seems to hide a story. It

Congratulations Garth! I just would like to know the meaning of "Apotheoun", you know, I'm a foreigner. I wish I could see it personally. Maybe some day.
Kindest wishes.

Garth,
I think that, for many painters, the story they tell is the one about looking.

Whitaker said that it
