Hi Marvin,

Thanks for the kind words. I've admired your work for some months now. Your "Sylvia" is beautiful. It's amazing what (you have shown us all) can be done with a small old b&w photo and a ton 'o' talent. Thanks for the warm welcome.

Hi Steven,

Yes, Rock Polka (not to be confused with Rock Lobster) is something to consider. I think it is a genre just waiting to happen - the public (and not just the portrait public, mind you) would eat it up. "What do you do for a living?" "I paint portraits and play bass in a rock-polka band." Could life be any sweeter?

Steven I've really enjoyed your critiques. I'm always amazed at how thorough and spot on you are - every time! Soon (when I get up the nerve) I'll post one of my paintings so you can train that laser eye of yours on it. I look forward to it and I'm sure I'll learn a lot from your feedback. Thanks for being out there.
