Gary L. Everest's portrait of Harry Kent
Lately I have been much honoured and deeply moved by my friend Gary's wonderful portait of me that he completed in recent days.
Gary is an exceptionally fine painter, a soulful and reflective artist who has something important to say about the human condition.
His technique is masterly.
I am humbled by his talent.
And deeply value his friendship.
You can see more of Gary's stunning work, and become a follower of this fine artist, at his blog at HERE.

Gary is, indeed, very talented and this painting is so striking and powerful - I'm glad it's large and strong and hoping you are feeling the same these days.

I'm honored to know you and will forever be in your debt for what you've given all of us. We all eagerly await your next painting, poem or discourse on matters of art and philosophy and especially your always encouraging and positive comments.
Stay well and keep creating.

Thank you so much everybody for your amazing comments. I'm so glad you appreciate Gary's work and I know he is very encourgaed reading your reactions.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry i have not been able to write earlier and that i am am unable to reply individually now, which i would very much like to do, but i have had a recent illness and the convalescence is taking rather some time and has been preventing me from sitting at a computer for any length of time. I am fine and everything is healing well.
It has also been preventing me from painting, alas. So i have had nothing to show over recent weeks. I expect to be back in action well and truly by March.
Thanks again everyone for your visits and comments and your on-going support of this blog.
Warm greets,
harry
