Could you post your portrait link if you get a chance?
If not - I will find it again and share. Several list
members are doing portrait lessons right now.
Susan on Long Island: I checked the Kumamoto site.
There is a contact email address there in left column.
I am guessing it is Ryuichi Nishio's. There is also an
email address listed at the right hand side - down
towards the bottom (you could copy and paste that
one).
