How wonderful Alex!

This is the kind of positive show the art world definitely needs.

DRAT - I was in Wayne, Pennsylvania on Monday.

Anyway Alex, this is a terrific idea! What a wonderful way for all of you to showcase your talents. I hope you take lots of photos of this event; I'm very excited for all of you.

Incidentally, it also seems to be a Philly tradition to not give the name of the portrait artist on the plaque underneath the portrait. I must have seen twenty portraits in your area over the past week in which the name of the subject is set forth but there is no clue as to who painted the portrait.

Another super idea, Alex. It should be a wonderful show and I wish I could come out and see it.

How wonderful! Congratulations on actually doing it. We've been talking for a long time about doing something similar here in Northern California. We had a group several years ago, the Portrait Art Society which was a charter chapter of ASOPA, who put on a couple of shows and then died. The problem of course is organizing, because we're all busy painting.

How did you go about organizing it?
