Stolen Painting - "Freedom Drummers", 24" by 20" Oil on Canvas

My painting, "Freedom Drummers", was stolen in December 2007 about 2 weeks before Christmas from a Salon in Waterford. It was being displayed on the wall and offered for sale. Another painting of mine, "Waiting" was also taken. I am deeply saddened by this. I worked on the drummers for over a year, and was proud to have it exhibited in two shows in 2007. There were paintings by other artist that were taken as well. I know how hard we artist work in our profession and I hope that we recover our precious artwork.

Now on a lighter note, I'd like to thank all my family and friends who encouraged and supported me for the year 2007. Thank you for attending my Art Exhibits and Shows, visiting my website, and blog (especially those who left comments). A special thanks to all who bought my artwork and commissioned custom portraits. It makes what I love to do that much more meaningful and pleasurable when I see how much you cherish the paintings.

I wish you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
