“We can’t wait to hear from you!”
“It was truly a pleasure to sit (over face time) with Rebecca Kinkead for one half hour and get to know her. She is a wonderful artist (love the shaking dogs) and I enjoyed her warm, welcoming presence. Also, she flattered me by making me look much younger and by saying that was the way she saw me. Thanks, Rebecca, for the experience.”
“I was in the Kiss the Cook store, pre-pandemic, and Rebecca was at the back doing portraits. I had not signed up, but Rebecca invited me to sit. Natasha along with my wife encouraged me to sit. I am a photographer and usually framing the scene, so it was strange to sit for a portrait. Thank you for saving so many years off my face. I thought the portrait of Natasha is great to. Was that Trent behind that Nikon camera?
Wonderful. I enjoyed meeting you, and encourage you and others to step, as you had, out of your comfort zone. congrats, Rebecca, and thanks.”
“So wonderful! Evocative and impactful. I feel like I know some of these people and wish I knew all of them. Thanks Rebecca and Sheldon.”
“Wonderful exhibit, and it was great to recognize some familiar faces in the collection of portraits!”
