"The impression I am left with
is one of a very perpetual and natural connection with each of your subjects.
As a portrait artist, you know
this is not a requirement to get 'nice' portraits.
But it is absolutely a requirement
if one is to
get the real heart-stoppers,
those faces that become firmly lodged
in part of your mind
and can be easily recalled even years later.
That you have achieved this level of trust,
where one can look into the eyes
of the image and feel like
they know something about
the person,
over such a broad range of subjects,
is truly remarkable.
These people are lucky, all of them,
to have been your subjects."

"I feel when I look at this portrait.
It feels like she is listening to something
I am saying
to her.
I find myself trying to think of something important
or significant to tell her.
Very nice work."
