From: Lesley Groff To: Lisa Kirk <=IMM> Subject: Re: Portrait Scholarship Update Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2015 21:59:15 +0000 HI Lisa...thank you so much for this...I have left a message for Victoria...lets see what happens...Its possible she is just too busy...and if so, I asked her to please let me know as the student needs to paint this portrait as part of his grade. How many times does the artist need to meet with the subject?? (I have given Jeffrey this update!)

I'll let you know when they have something confirmed. Kyeong and Celina have also been in touch. They made an arrangement but Celina had to postpone and now is not going to be back in New York for a couple of months. This is a little challenging for the artist as they are due to complete the portraits by June. Nick has been in reaching out to Victoria by email but as yet has had no response. Do you have a phone number for her? Any assistance you can give would be very much appreciated.

Our semester does not start until January 20th so they are all still on break.

Back to work it is!! Just wondering if any of the artists were able to hook up with their portrait subjects while they were home from school...hmm, although I think Karyna may have been away...Anyway, any update you could provide when you have a moment would be great.

We have been in touch with Celina again as she was hoping to meet with Kyeong some time after December 17th. I heard just last night that she will now not be in New York until mid January and plans to visit the Academy then. We do not have a firm date as yet. Celina will be back in touch when her travel plans are confirmed. She also mentioned letting Jeffrey know she has had to postpone her meeting with Kyeong. Bernard and Karyna are looking to meet during winter break and as soon as they have a firm date I will let you know. I'm checking in with Nick as to my knowledge we have had no response from Victoria. His last contact was on December 3rd. He will follow up again (the second years are consumed with mid-year critiques this week). I know you were also going to reach out to her. Winter break is an ideal opportunity for all the artists and the portrait recipients to meet so I am keen we secure dates for all three in the coming weeks. We're very grateful to Jeffrey for his support of this unique scholarship program and I appreciate your interest and follow up. Have a wonderful holiday and I'll be in touch again early in the New Year. Best wishes Lisa EFTA00354098
