“Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions.”
- Albert Einstein

This portrait started on a scrap of canvas with paint marks that reminded me of Albert Einstein. My dad used to tell stories of when he was a student at Princeton and would see the famous physicist on campus. Since I lacked white in the leftover acrylic I was using, I couldn’t paint that iconic hair seen in so many photos. Instead I decided to portray Einstein as he probably looked to my dad.
