Hi Marc!! You aren’t going to believe this , but I’m in Carmel Valley with my brother and my
artist sister-in-law, and we hung her new show in their art gallery/wine tasting shop called “Chesebro Wines” in the
Village. Hope you and your parents stop by sometime!!
ps. I met you in Florence ten days ago with Margot Kent!! I love your paintings!! They
are awesome!!!!

One day I will have the time/money to take one of your workshops.
A series that makes the eye glad!! Love them.
