[link]EDIT 10/4/2010: I have to express admiration towards Lucie aka Siluan for painting this picture for me:
[link]It's the first ever painting I ever commissioned, from an artist who had already used my stock as reference for other paintings. Paintings that I fell in love with immediately, and although I might have felt a little nervous at first contacting her to commission a painting for me, it turned out beautifully.

Meanwhile, I had a commissioned a watercolour artist here on deviantArt to paint the picture for me and I'm happy to hang it right outside my bedroom: [link]
When I told my father's friends about it in South Africa, the wife in the family was so moved she commissioned the same artist from deviantArt to make the same painting so she could give it to her husband for his birthday
