Thanks Josh. He has done some excellent work. Someday I will share some of the earlier pieces which are quite different. I have a few of his paintings at my house, including this portrait of me in my better hair days.

Thank you Josh. I'll have to share some of his older pictures, which are also interesting to see. This is one of a few paintings of his that I have at home. The background is taken from this image, one of the first pictures I took with a digital camera. I had given a print to him some years before.

Nice Stylemaster. I have that same one as well as two others in different colors. They are not similar though. The Squatter is a taller straighter open crowned hat witha a 1/2" bigger brim. Mine is creased in my fave crease, a center dent w/front pinches as opposed to the factory teardrop of the Stylemaster. But BOTH are GREAT hats :)
Here's my Acorn Fawn (from DM) :

A favorite of mine too... I was happy when he gave it to me. It's a wonderful and comforting thing how you remain a boy in your parent's eyes.

cheers,
Alan

Sorry Justin... I have heard that before. I've used it as an avatar on other forums that allow animated GIFs... perhaps the wisdom of Fedora Lounge not to. 8^) It's inspired by my favorite moment in the film classic La Jetée... worth a watch on Netflix if you haven't seen it.
