Su -

I wish I had inherited a few brushes, but alas, I was not so fortunate!

Finally, I have a website to call my own. It is not finished, but it
is a start. Please check it out and make suggestions and
corrections. My next project is to get a blog going. It is sorta
started.

Viza - your "Gifts" is wonderful.

Two items:
1. About drying brushes-- Position the brushes so that they are drying with
the bristles down. This prevents mold.
2. Art in general
My Letter to the Editor of Architectural Digest was published as the feature
letter in the August issue. It was about an article, in the June issue, in
the Art Notebook Section, My letter strongly agreed with Eugene V. Thaw,
art dealer and collector. He stated his opinions about the skyrocketing
prices for art and his assessment of the contemporary market..
Not to take what he said out of context,. but in general he had a
very.informative negative view of what's happening in art these days .And I am putting
it mildly! I think you would be interested in reading what he has to say
because I haven't heard anyone express those thoughts.


He was not referring to any of the art we do. You are the best out there!

Send Message: To this poster

We were just over in Paris and went to the Rodin Museum...they have a fine
exhibition on the mutual influence between Rodin and some Japanese artists.
Most interesting was his collection of Japanese prints -- it's quite the list.
Wonderful to see so many up close!

More details here: http://www.musee-rodin.fr/welcome.htm

cheers,
