Mine has arrived as well and I'm overwhelmed with it's magnificence.  I never knew Gary but have come to know him through his former posts and what you folks have posted here about this kind Gentleman.  I dare say I wish I could have known him personally....

First I want to say this is NOT TKO. It is Twoshadows on TKO's computer. The medallions are world class which is so fitting for a world class individual. Gary Burke and the Burke family will live in our collections for a lifetime and we shall remain as part of the Burke family as well. Daniel Carr's professionalism is unequalled on the North American continent!

After several hours of playing with different lighting this is the best compromise I can come up with. In the end I concentrated on bringing out as much detail of the portrait as I could.
