Oh, this is very, very nice! You have captured Dodgson's whimsical nature in the style of your painting! I have seen the photograph upon you have based your painting a thousand times and you have transformed it into a totally new image! This Dodgson looks as though he came from one of his own stories.
Speaking of the original photograph, I have always wondered what that is in his hands that he is wiping with the cloth. In your painting it looks more like a lens than it does in the photograph -- at least in the photographs I have seen -- yet it looks more like a modern lens than a 19th century lens.
Anyway, I think this may be the best portrait of Dodgson I have ever seen, and I am a bit of a student of the man. (I even wrote a poem dedicated to Dodgson, if you care to read it! [link] )

It's exactly the kind of thing he did in his letters to Alice.
