I have never enjoyed portrait painting, but I am so glad I did this one as it was shortly afterwards he passed on. This is a quick oil sketch he encouraged me to do. It was a gift to him for his attentions and kindnesses. He was happy to get an oil painting from me that was all his own. I learned much from him about seeing life from his alternative viewpoint over the years. He had a fabulous sense of humor, yet often, as a close friend, I saw his more serious and somber side which I think is captured in this work.

Randy Burns
This is absolutely a wonderful tribute to your late partner Roberto. Not only so well painting with love and admiration for him, it also delves into the psyche of his presence. I always love and enjoy your signature touches of oranges, and violets here and about. F/L. So sorry for your loss my friend.
Nancy Griswold replied:
RAndy, thank you so much, his birthday was this week and I spoke with his sister who went to his grave inCalifornia, birthdays are highly celebrated in his family so it is a time to remember and reunite with all those who loved him. I feel so fortunate I really experienced true love in my life, I know what it is and although the pain is great, the life experience with him was also. So grateful for your comment and the f/l dear art friend.
