Robin Williams

Wow!!  What a great time this was...  I got to paint a portrait of Legendary comedian, actor Robin Williams!  Thanks to the great people at River Rock Casino Resort, especially Howard Blank.

We have worked out a great concept for local charities...  I paint the big acts that come to town, the artist signs them, River Rock display them and then at the end of the year we auction them all off for great local causes!  Everyone's a winner!!


Of course the highlight for me on this evening was the real thrill of meeting Robin.  I have met some really big names in entertainment, but this was pretty special because I am such a fan... Plus, he is an Academy Award winner!!  Very cool!
As I had hoped, he truly is a very funny, humble, warmhearted person who really appreciated that I took the time to paint him.  He really liked the work, and for me..  well, that is just awesome!


I will be posting more work for River Rock Casino Resort in the near future.. lots of very cool acts will be coming through, so stay tuned!!  For now, check out what a great place River Rock is...
