If you’ve been following this blog or browsing the main site you may know me as The Long Island Guy. It’s my YouTube handle and the sig on some of my email.
As you might imagine my kids get a kick out of nicknames and this one is no exception. (King William is another favorite, but that’s another story.)
Well, my ever-lovin’ and very talented daughter, who lately has a just little too much time on her hands and misses me dearly, decided to pay homage to the Long Island Guy with a portrait.
I guess it was inevitable. People that can draw, will draw. And nothing is off limits, not even their parents.
Are you ready for this? Seriously, brace yourself…
The Long Island Guy (Ta Da!)
