Five Stars!
Hey, "Old Man," slow down!
Excellent painting Steve.
You are so good, I thought this was
a new "Adhishray!" By the way, your
profile portrait from the 1970's is cute.
Keep slinging paint. That's what you're good at.

Your absolutely right Adhishray,Your spirit is strong and your will to produce art for artsake is also. Your approach shows a natural strength and a force to be reckoned with in the art world. Your supportive and friendly nature is the same, again strong, and dedicated. I appreciate and will always remember how you supported me here on PIL even while I was ill and away, I will always cherish the portrait you painted of me in the studio, along with all the many great comments and friendly gestures over this last year. I am so very glad you like it, it was painted purely with you in mind. Steve

Hello Steve, Wonderful painting & dedication to Nalini - I couldn't agree more with your sentiments. One of these days this painting might stir up a storm of controversy as future art historians/critics/experts try to determine its place within the Adhishray canon.
