A room full of Leos. Artist Leo Segedin, who turns 95 this month, has spent decades using himself as a model. An exhibition of his self-portraits just closed at Oakton Community College’s Koehnline Museum of Art and a book “Segedin x Segedin” was recently published. “All kinds of things happen when you look at yourself in a mirror,” he said. Segedin, wife Janis and two sons moved to Monroe Street in 1967. He has been painting since the 1940s. (Photo by Richard Cahan)

I have a print of the painting behind Leo in this photo and treasure it. Congratulations to a well-lived/living life!
