He is very talented - incredible detail in the faces. I'm glad you included both photos. bskAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6451587500257595163.post-11843690179241640702017-02-28T21:41:16.663-08:002017-02-28T21:41:16.663-08:00Thanks so much for confirming my sense that this w...Thanks so much for confirming my sense that this was quite unusual to see. I wish I had been able to talk to the artist, but the ear buds kind of said to me that he didn't want to be disturbed, and so I respected that.Ken Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14968646929859916724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6451587500257595163.post-39445080893270981642017-02-28T07:22:34.072-08:002017-02-28T07:22:34.072-08:00This is amazing.

I wonder, is he an artist of a certain caliber the museum recognizes and wants to encourage? That would make sense - aiding the development of a younger person with great potential would seem like a mandate of any museum. His tools are spread out so people have to walk around him and I can't imagine a museum tolerating that unless he were given special permission. The picture is striking to me because I've never seen anything like this before. Thanks for capturing/sharing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
