SOPHISTICATION from the series RED LACE... this painting was stolen 6" X 8" acrylic on illustration board
It's not about the money, but how can someone truly enjoy something that they take by theft. It's beauty is then shrouded with the stigma of guilt.
It's hard enough for a gallery to survive these days, but to have this happen in there establishment is not only difficult for the artist but very hard for the gallery who has taken on the care of the work until it is sold. As an artist I appreciate so much what my gallery does for me, and I hate to see this sort of thing happen.
We, as artists, wish our work would go into loving and happy homes, where it can be shown with pride.
