fame by any other name
received an inspiring message from art collector and PhD candidate Tema Okun today. “…want you to know that i have made one of your paintings my desktop and ohmygod it is fabulous and makes me feel good all day long…” Tema and her partner Tom Stern are among my earliest supporters, buying up several pieces from my first show in Durham, NC, in 2001. They continue to purchase regularly from me and other working artists across the country.
