Mike, thanks for these. DeCamp's become one of my favorites lately. He has a refined feel for atmosphere, and in the public portraits, he gives plenty of "breathing space" around the subjects.

A fellow artist once remarked to me that her work changed radically when she realized, "I wasn't painting light, I was painting air." (Not spatial air, but instead a palpable feeling of humidity, depth, and atmosphere.) I've always felt DeCamp accomplished that feeling very effectively.

Best--TE
