Great News!




In the midst of working on three portrait commissions, I received word that Mrs. Gloria Gales owner and director of World Art Gallery and OC Arts and Frames wants to represent my work in Orange County.

Gloria has been a professional art dealer and art appraiser since 1984 and I was quiet honored when she contacted me and told me that she was impressed by my work.

Maybe now I can sit back and let someone else take care of all the marketing for me. Now this would be a nice change of pace!

Dear Patty,

Thanks! It seems that Mrs. Gales really likes my work and that in itself is so important when someone is meant to represent you. She has a really wonderful staff as well and so far I have been pretty impressed.

There are so many new things to consider and right now I am just a bit overwhelmed by it all.

Enzie, congratulations! That is great news. I can imagine why you are feeling overwhelmed right now. Just hang in there and before you know it, everything will settle down and take its place in your life.
