    My Dad, the Philatelist

    Pastel by Mario Lopez (15.5in. by 21.75in.)
    "This homage explores the profound personal "reset" of a lifelong academic who, several decades ago, redirected his unwavering dedication and intellectual rigor into the intricate world of philately. Once a lifelong hobby, it has since become his driving force. In this artwork, I sought to capture a unique, majestic, and dignified presence—one that has found a renewed sense of purpose and "soul renewal" in retirement through the acts of giving back and passing the torch of knowledge. His gaze, directed slightly upward, communicates a life of reflection and the peace of one who has successfully completed his "collection" of life experiences."
    Artwork purchased online can be picked up AFTER the exhibit ends, on or after April 1, 2026 -- or shipped to the buyer (ALL SHIPPING COSTS TO BE PAID BY THE BUYER).
