It's always nice to hear from customers about how much they enjoy my email newsletters. I had some of my collectors come in last month as a result of reading in my January/February issue about the importance of seeing art in person in order to see scale, subtle nuances in texture, etc. It made a difference, as once they saw the painting in the gallery, it sold on the spot.

The painting below never hit my email newsletter, as it sold the day after it was completed, with the paint barely dry!

Art can touch the soul in amazing ways. If something moves you, don't hesitate to act on your impulse.


warmly,
LeeAnn
