Commission

The University awarded me the commissionto paint the 19th president Dr. Larry Dietz. Dr. Dietz and I became good friends after he was hired as Vice President a few years ago. He said he'd be honored to have his portrait painted by me but I believe the honor is more mine. I've been working on the painting since mid-December and will complete it this weekend. This will be one of the highlights of my 30 year career at ISU since it is my intent to retire in December 2015. More pics to come from an unveiling later in April. Gotta give the U the privilege of releasing this but figured by the time anyone discovers this blog it will be public.
