Bad News folks...my hard disk crashed last Friday. 400Mb+ of data
proved unrecoverable and was lost when the disk had to be
reformatted.
So Andreas Freise will not get his pictures in the gallery after all
because I lost that posting.
Also I lost the posting of llizard painting herself on an easel
which was due to go in the gallery.
However...I have now trimmed the portraits in the gallery down to
Ascii Artists who have done at least one more picture in addition to
their Self-Portrait.
Since many portraits have been removed I have at last added my own
portrait. Meindert de Jong will recognise me immediately because
we met when he visited New Zealand a year or two ago and I had a
printout of Meindert's Ascii Portrait to help _me_ recognise _him_ ! :-)
I have also alphabeticised the list of artists names at the end of
the portraits.
My old Gallery file will now become a " Gallery of Self-Portraits "
and contain anyone who has done their own portrait or portraits.
