Thank you so much, Sandra, MaryEllen and Enzie! It is so nice to know when other artists appreciate a painting, and the WIP, too. The process is truly as important as the product. I'm sure that's why we all love to paint. Whenever I post my progress, I receive lots of helpful and thoughtful suggestions that have a significant impact on the final outcome, so it's always worth taking the time and effort to do a WIP.

Unveiling

Last week was the unveiling ceremony. It was a lovely event in the garden of a private home, folowed by an elegant dinner. In the photo below are, from left to right, Dr. Papadakis, me. and on the other side, Mrs. Papadakis and board member Joseph Jacovini.

Today the portrait was hung in its permanent home in the main building of Drexel University.

It looks like a nice event!
What a great idea to make an outside unveiling, the colors of the portrait look great in natural light...
Congratulations, Alex!
