WOW! I was amazed to see both the incredible skill and talent and the HUGE range of styles when I first saw your work! But my eye went almost right away to this one and I thought, with great certainty, "This is his Dad." I have a hunch that you caught both HIS likeness AND your own likeness and heart in this one!

Artist Reply: your right everyone used to call me Little " DOC " his nickname was Doc Taylor ...the older I get the more I look like him ....in this picture he was 82 ...the year he died....he was an amazing Man

I can nearly see the wisdom traveling from what he sees to how he processes it and how he carefully and thoughtfully portrays it to others. "Brother" is not just a title given to him ..... but a part of this man's character as is it yours !!!!! Beautiful James !!!Beautiful........
