A New and Artful Year Begins!


Welcome to 2013! I'm looking forward to all that the New Year brings! New beginnings, fresh starts, and new adventures!

Please take a few minutes to watch the latest Artful Living video that gives some suggestions to the beginning art collector as well as the seasoned one.

Thank you again to all of our Gallery Friends and fans that have shown your support and patronage in 2012. It is with great warmth that I send you tons of appreciation and thanks!

Have a Safe, Happy, and Artful New Year!

Artful Holiday Giving....

Please take a few minutes to view the Holiday Gallery segment that we recently shot at the Artful Deposit Gallery in Bordentown City, NJ.

I believe the main focus of Artful Living is to encourage people to bring art into their lives. I also want to help "de-mystify" the art world. By watching the videos on Artful Living, you can gain the confidence to walk into galleries and experience art comfortably and not feel intimidated.

I mention that we have a new artist that works in ceramics. Many of Dahlia Guzik's pieces are food safe, so they are functional as well as lovely. She keeps her work very affordable (some small spoon rests start at $11.) and I was thrilled to see some people make their very first purchases in an art gallery this weekend past! A gentleman came back late Friday night to buy a small piece for himself because he said he was "thinking about it all night." He was so excited to own an original, hand made, one of a kind piece of art.

So sit back and relax and I thank you for your time.......Tis the Season to be Artful!

Cheers!
