Your Majesty:
After visiting Morocco from May 16 through 26,2009, for the International Collective Art Exhibition in Rabat, as a visual artist that I am, I was invited there by L’Association Marocaine des Art Contemporains in Rabat, I was so inspired by your country,your Majesty, and your people which are friendly, warm and very hospitable, and my experience was so tremendously enjoyable, that when I came back to New York, I started a series of oil portraits of yourself, your Majesty, which they are expected to be completed by the end of the year. I took the images from the Internet. I would like to ask permission to bring these portraits to Rabat in 2010 and have an exhibition in a regional gallery, so your people can be invited to see these portraits of yourself and your Royal family. I will be very happy, your Majesty, to send you photo copies of these portraits, the once that already completed for your approval. Your response will be greatly appreciated.
Respectfully yours,

The portraits in oil on canvas of His Majesty, the Crown Price and the Royal Family are now completed. It will be an honor if I can be allowed to exhibit these works in Rabat. If anyone is interested in seeing images of these portraits, please contact me at greco.kalas89 (at) gmail.com
