$20,000 for four minutes is not bad.

Is that the same guy who did the Jimi Hendrix one, years ago? Same style for sure.

Deri, I could have done your portrait by now, but Cisco has not sent your photos. The one taken at the cheese and wine tasting party is the one I am looking for.

If it was me, I'd still be looking for "That brush" ot "That color" I'd be walking back to my truck to retrieve stuff I forgot. I would get too excited and ruined the stage by jumping into my paint box and spilling everything all over the place, like Gallager.

Cool!!! I didn't see any layout marks nor did I ever see him look away like he was looking at any kind of reference pic.....impressive!

Drips and splashes didn't seem to matter. Yet when I do a mural, whether picture or lettering, I'm jumping to clean up the minute I get a drip on a previously-painted section...

BIll I was not rushing you in any way. I just appreciate the thought. And Cisco man! You are just like the brother I am glad my mother never had man. [Razz]

My son has one of Johnny Cash that was done in 5 min. The guy painted it upside down, and no one knew who or even what it was until he turned it over.
