I’m not sure who was more nervous, Patrick Hutchinson or me, when we finally get to meet. It was the “Oh my goodness” “Oh my days” that Patrick uttered when he first laid eyes on his portrait. Any nerves I had dissipated as soon as I saw the delight and disbelief on his face. It was certainly one of the most rewarding and quickest portraits that I’ve ever painted. He signed a copy of his newly released book “Every One Versus Racism”. The gratitude was reciprocal and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
