"A Conversation Among Pansies"

For an inspired and special Christmas gift, consider one of my small paintings on display now at Salon 4001, at 4001 Duval ( just two blocks north of 38th, in Hyde Park ). I am displaying ten of my floral still lifes. This painting is one of several small but powerful little gems at very affordable prices at the hair salon of my friends Deborah and Carol.  They take pride in exhibiting art, and welcome viewers.

You don’t have to get a haircut, but might be tempted, because these ladies are the best!
