Your portraits are electrifying! I always stop and take a break from work when your e-mail arrives to check the next surprise.

I think your portraits are really good. I love all the different colors in the dabs of paint. I would like to say politely, that your portraits are your shining------shining what? not sure where to do from here. But thank you for sending them.

Yes, this is quite your best yet. Well done - love the blue under the eyebrow - the glasses on top of your head, how the hair at your temple actually looks like hair - and the brushstrokes that make up your face are luminescent and reveal your character and attitude at the same time. And the darks - wow. Love it.

Extraordinary work.The most aimazing for me is that those strong expressive brush marks are done on such little format.

Each part is abstract,the whole is figurative.This moving painting will not be forgotten.

Shades of Nathaniel Hawthorne. A man who also straddled the light and dark.
