  1. 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!!!!
