Ilaria's Portrait Accepted RSPP 2006




I just heard the excellent news Ilaria's portrait of Anna was accepted by the Royal Society of Portrait Painters jury. The RSPP annual exhibition is held in the Mall Galleries in London beginning on the 27th of April until the 14th of March. It is a major portrait event.

Ilaria, Congratulations!!! I hope this brings many new commissions for you.

I am overjoyed!!
I know there are many painters way better then me who are still waiting for an answer from RSPP; perhaps my painting doesn't deserve to hang in the place of some other work, but I am really happy that the commitment with which I have been working in the last months has been given such a price.
It is an encouragement to work even more!

And thank you to my friends over here that helped me with this work!

Ilaria,

Congratulations on your acceptance. I missed this one as I was away.

A beautiful and luscious piece of paint and color.

Dear Ilaria,

What fabulous and fortunate news! Don't doubt yourself because this is an exciting portrait and one of the most innovative I've seen. If you teach, I'll come over and study. I am so happy for you and proud of you.

Is there anyone else we know, also accepted into this RSPP show?



Garth
