Stephen McGarvey returns with part 5 of our profile on Richard Stone. Richard discusses painting Nelson Mandela, meeting him for the first time, his presence, Nelson not making eye contact, the ability to capture greatness, a sense of humour and forging a lifelong friendship. We close with how Richard captured Nelson Mandela’s eyes in his portrait, the importance of building rapport, trust being the byproduct, and how Nelson Mandela reacted to seeing Richards portrait for the first time.
