1 Feb, 08 Installment Sales and Gift Certificates and Payment Changes

New Addition Installment Sales: See a painting for sale that you want and wish you could pay in installments? Well now you can by visiting our encrypted page the Installment Sale Agreement Form. Basically, it breaks the payments down into 6 equal installments for the price of the painting on the date of purchase and puts a hold and locks in a price on the painting while you are making payments on it. After the last payment is made, the painting is shipped to you within 7 days. You will need, the title of the painting that you want, your billing info, and a credit or debit card to bill to. If the painting isn't for sale because it has already been sold or being held for a show, you will be notified that the agreement cannot be made before any charges are processed.

New Addition Gift Certificates: Not sure what to buy, but have a special someone you want to buy for? How about a Gift Certificate and give the gift of art without the stress of what to pick. You may purchase gift certificates here at Gift Certificate Purchase at our secure commerce website. Prices ranges go from $ 20 to $ 10,000 depending on which gift certificate you chose from the drop down menu. You may purchase gift certificates via visa / mastercard credit or debit, paypal, or google checkout. You are given a special pin to enter upon checkout which can be applied to shipping charges as well as the actual purchase price.

In other news, American Express and Discover will no longer be accepted via our direct merchant processor. You may however, still use both cards via Paypal if you chose to use them.

20 Jan, 08 Amsterdam Whitney Gallery (New York, NY) and other news

20, Dec, 07 Subject: Interview with the artist

I decided to publish the ArtisSpectrum interview which was completed in July, 2007. Although life is a river filled with floods and droughts, most of the answers remain the same, but some have changed somewhat; nonetheless, it provides a rare glimpse into a snapshot of my life. I would say that with every perceived disaster, every flood, what we as a people and a world tends to focus on the disaster and forget that the floods lay down fertile soil for rejuvenation and planting and without the periodic floods, the soil becomes less fruitful. Even the hurricane disaster of New Orleans as gruesome and apocalyptic as it was, it brought everyone together making us as a nation stronger and provided an opportunity for growth and rebuilding of the city providing countless jobs and new beginnings. You may view the snapshot here at July 07 Interview.

18 Dec, 07 Subject: Artist's Forums

The artist's forums - a public forum for announcements and input has been replaced by this page which is more of a journal or blog format. The reason behind this was due to the very high volume of unwanted spam which had to be deleted daily or more to keep the board clean. All the topics of the old forums have been moved here.
