Martin portrait Goes to the Smithsonian!
Sad update to a wonderful story. RIP, David.
The Commissioners of the Smithsonian Institution’s National Portrait Gallery have announced the acquisition of a 1980 portrait of David N. Martin by Louis Briel.
Martin is the founder of the Martin Agency, one of the Nation's foremost advertising agencies. His enduring “Virginia is for Lovers” campaign is widely viewed as one of the most successful marketing campaigns in history. Today, Martin is an author, speaker and lecturer who lives in Richmond, Virginia.
Louis Briel's 1993 portrait of Arthur Ashe is also in the Permanent Collection of the National Portrait Gallery.

TWO NEW PAINTINGS
This painting was a gift for my friend, Dustin Lance Black, human rights activist and Oscar winning screenwriter of the movie "Milk." Lance remembers, "I love my big brother more than I can describe. We survived a lot and of dark days when we were little boys. I won’t go into the details, but I don’t think I would have made it without him."
Michael’s culinary studies started at the Kump Institute in New York City aiding him in his career of hotel and restaurant management. In 2001 he branched out on his own as a personal chef for several of LA’s elite households.
Being a private chef introduced him to the world of photo shoots, and on set catering. In 2003, photographer, Kwaku Alston, and producer Franny Legge introduced him to the industry.
Since 2003 he has enjoyed being at the helm of his own company, Whitehouse Dish, and catering to the photo industry, TV, catering and event planning for weddings, events, openings and private dinners.

"Good portraiture invites us into a relationship with the painting; great portraiture leaves us little choice but to enter into the experience and life of the sitter.
