    Congratulations to Greg, an exhibit like this represents true recognition of his efforts. I would love to see the paintings, but being in LA, it is a bit too far of a drive.

    Full reports it is! Thanks, you guys….I don't want to overdo it, but it's hard to tell in CyberWorld if too much is too much.

    But I'll take pix and such….

    Wish everyone could go. I'm feeling pretty proud, and scared. It really says, “this is YOU, Manchess. Whatdya think?”

    Yikes!

    Congratulations, Master!!

    I would not worry too much about the impact of your work (especially the originals) on the audience, whether fans, or professional artists! It is really IMPRESSIVE, and it’s still getting better and better… You, as an artist, are like a good wine – the older the better! Truly inspirational!
