“The greatest thing that happened was that in the last 15 years of his life, Purvis really got to enjoy the fact that other people loved him and loved his art. He could’ve been down in Miami, in Overtown, and only known by the few that lived around him. But he became an international artist,” Larry Clemson

Yes, that’s me tap dancing. Dancing was my first passion in life. I started when I was 8 years old and never stopped. I rent the dance studio at Art Serve every week and my friend Joan and I tap our hearts out. I created one of the steps, Joan did the other and the last step was choregraphed by one of our friends and teacher, David Viner.

On December 8th Richard Wright was named the 25th winner of the Turner prize, Britain’s most prestigious art award, for his spectacular gold-leaf mural.
Those who know me know of my obsession with the mirror image, so I would love a trip to London to see this. Created in gold-leaf makes it hard to photograph. Looks intriguing.

You don’t have to be Rockefeller to collect art.
He was a postal clerk and she was a librarian. Of modest means but they managed to build a vast collection of contemporary art. Their story is incredible. They lived on Dorothy’s salary and used Herb’s salary to by art.

Here is an interview I found on YouTube of Paul Dorrell being interviewed on NBC6 Miami. I read his book, “Living the Artist’s Life”, and I highly recommend it.

I was recently contacted by a person who claimed to have a client interested in purchasing one of my paintings. He implied that he was an art broker. We negotiated price and at first I was excited that someone from London would own one of my paintings. When we got to payment I became suspicious. He said his client would send a cashiers check for the painting, HIS fee and the shipping costs. The shipping was to be handled by the courier branch of his shipping company in the USA.
I did some research and found information on this scam. Here is a link to what I found. Click Here.
