Well, on morning my husband, Howard and I were lingering over our breakfast cup of coffee when he surprised me by saying he would like to have a portrait of me, similar to the one of his Aunt Bea who was displayed on the wall in our bedroom. His Aunt Bea was his mother’s sister and was beautiful as a young women and it showed in her picture. The frame was oval and it especially appealed to my husband. If we decided to go ahead with this exciting project it would be done in a oval frame.

When I walked into the gallery that displayed such wonderful, inspiring art work, I was awestruck! However, when I laid eyes on the portrait that Aapo did of my husband, Lawrence, I burst
into tears of joy! The portrait of Lawrence is so life-like, you could almost reach out & touch him! Thank you for such a great honor! Aapo, you truly are an artistic Genius!
Lovingly & Respectfully,
Carla E. McCue
I first met my neighbor Aapo not long after my beloved father died.
Though I’m not especially religious, I was convinced that my father, a General Electric employee by day and an amateur artist in his spare time, had planted an artist in my newly adopted state of California. My father and I shared a passion for painting. I don’t think we believed places really existed in time or in memory unless they had been observed, interpreted and captured by an artist.
