Ditto. The "idea" behind the call is as impressive as the talent behind it...which all come from the same place, I think. Beautiful, Dave, as always.

Mere genuine/mortal admiration nor any other trite superlative I could ever dream of couldn't come close to the truly remarkable and gifted talent you have. Never have I viewed such work---there seems to be no limit to 1) your imagination and 2) your tireless workmanship. The composition, detail, subtle meaning and shear beauty leave me speechless and for those who know me is saying something! Thanks again for sharing all of your work.

You are in my opinion in a league of your own. Scott

Post by: boxcaller on February 22, 2011, 07:50:53 AM: One of the highlights of my convention, is to run to the call table and see the masterpieces dave has made each year. No one pays tribute to so many things better than you do dave,....PLUS,...that was one of the most sincere and true acceptance speech's i ever heard. Good job my friend,.....good job.
