He and his wife were grateful for the painting, as a way to remember a member of their family. You can see the posts documenting the painting, from the sneak preview, to the finished artwork, to the commission inspiration.
I'm saddened. I actually had the opportunity to meet Miles a couple of times and he was every bit as handsome in person as he was in the reference photograph. He'll be deeply missed.
My condolences to his adoptive family, and my own gratitude for having been a part of creating something meaningful.
Invite Beauty,

Really lovely, Ivan! I still can't believe you do this with your fingers. Crazy talent!
Hey there, Cheryl!
I'm still catching up… :)
Thanks for the compliment!

I think I'm rather deranged in my awe of how death affects art--it's as if the impact is deepened.
It's not deranged at all. Death affects not only art, but life, too, in deepening how we respond to them both.
