@bouzoukiHOLLAND Thank you for your kind remarks. Mr. Kordis has been painting for more than 30 years? at least. He paints everyday from morning to night. I've never met such a prolific artist as he is. God surly guides his hand and strengthens his body to have such physical endurance.

@tps607 Thank you Tom for your comment. George has got it all; technical know how, artistic insight and creativity and intellectual imagination....all the qualities that differentiate the mediocre from the master. Mr. Kordis is a Master at his craft.
