Hi, remember general rule of thumb, if it's blue, it's linked for your convenience!

As we all know, the Holidays are upon us! Does anyone else really need to tell us again? No. But we do have an idea which you may find helpful: The gift of art while meeting the artist personally and in many cases contributing to a charity while making the acquisition! Just as our galleries, the carefully screened fine artists of Santa Fe ArtWorld have a ready supply of beautiful art from the contemporary to the classic easily acquired by the collector directly from the artist and/or gallery regardless of location.

Rest assured, most of our professional artists have personal relationships with their own transport services which they regularly utilized, and it is not uncommon for them to ship art all over the world. Regardless, should you like another referral for art transport, we recommend Pak Mail which packs, handles, and delivers fine art the world over.

Price range for art from the artists of SFAW is from approximately $200.00 to $500,000.00 contingent upon the renown of the artist and the piece requested. Many of our artists have charities of which a portion of each sale goes to -- these contributions are generally made in the collector's name.

All contact information for both artists and galleries are located within their WebPages with direct links to their websites if available. We encourage you to contact them directly for more information about their work.

November's Featured Artist JUDITH PECK

Quote of the month:
We must once again accept and harmonize the perceptual biases of both (the left and right brain) and understand that for thousands of years the left hemisphere has suppressed the qualitative judgement of the right, and the human personality has suffered for it ~ Bruce Powers

Santa Fe ArtWorld believes that true art communicates in ways words cannot and thus art heals. . .. Please visit all 4 pages of our Artist & Gallery Directory: 1, 2, 3, 4 and see what voice you hear with each of our artists!

THOUGHT OF THE MONTH:
When we only choose from what is offered us, we know limits. Our greatest masters of art, science, philosophy, music, and religion chose to find their own truths rather than to adhere to another's. Find your own truth and create by it for then only do you live. But ask yourself first, does your truth hurt anyone, or does it help others?
Choose the one which helps ALL and you will know truth with no limits. ~ Denise Williams
