Portraits of The People I Loved to Paint
There are many other people that I loved to paint too numerous to hang in one show...
Wonderful! Looks like a great show. Mazel tov! About the writing, however, ahem. Using "loved" in the past tense makes it sound like these people are no more. I trust this is not the case. Also portraits is not possessive (although you may well be of your portraits—and deservedly so!). Sorry to be such a damn editor. Glad to see the show, however remotely.
I love your portraits. They clearly represent your own unique concept of who these people are and how they show themselves to the world. (I don't think we always realize just how we show ourselves to the world). It's always exciting to see your concepts of the world, whether they be portraits, still-life or landscape. You have a real intimate response to finding the truth out about people. Thanks for a great show.

"This magnificent show only lacks one crucial elemental component.
The individuals portrayed depict every category of genius possible... except The Great Journalist/Copy Editor / Boiled Peanut stand operator."
