GUEST OF HONOUR

Had the great honor today of a studio visit from Canada's Grand Chief of First Nations, Phil Fontaine. One of my workshop students Sarah Williams came to pick up paintings she bought and brought Mr. Fontaine and his party along to visit the studio. Was a huge priviledge and honor to have met him!!! Thanks so much Sarah for such a great gift!

  2. I didn't know who that was but looked him up and saw that you did receive quite an honor Brian.... that's fantastic. Congratulations. Did he comment on your work? Did you snap any photos... he has a great "portrait" face.

  3. Hi Elliot, yes he has a very noble sculpted face doesn't he, and it was very uplifting to have him here. I gave him a small painting of a moose and her liked my work. Silly me though, no pictures. Hope your well, see you in a month. Brian
