Burt Silverman’s hand.  This is a painting of the hand of the famous portrait artist, Burton Silverman, who was my mentor.  Hands are the way an artist speaks. The hand is the means of showing the artist’s skill and telling his stories.  I chose to paint my mentor’s hand because it allowed him to tell his stories to the world.
