Happy 8-Year Art Anniversary to Me! (and to YOU)
August is both my birthday month as well as my Art Anniversary - this year marks 8 years since I quit my "day job" to pursue my art career. To celebrate, I am offering YOU* specials on my art all month long.

So If you were thinking of purchasing work from me, either to add to your collection or as a first-time collector, NOW is the time to do it as these specials only last until August 31 at midnight.

I also have two big shows this month in Chester County, PA so make sure to read about them further down in this newsletter.
