Let me add my congrats too!!
Great portrait! Ditto to everything already said.
The heads are really sensitively painted. I like the softness and the glow you achieve and your way of modeling form and still keeping the color vibrant. The gestures of the figures and the way they interact with each other seems to strike the perfect note. I like what you did with the man's foot. It is all so in keeping with the spirit of the painting.
This is really a "double, double" portrait, very ambitious. I'm certain that it is even more impressive in person, and it is understandable that everyone involved is very pleased. Congratulations again!!
