These last few weekends, we enjoyed live shows in Charlotte, NC, Reston, VA and the delivery of a custom framed piece to a lovely family on Long Island. We were able to meet with our audiences, share insights, techniques and have more art move into people’s homes and brighten their lives. It always brings a […]
