Hi Charley, sorry to disappoint, but no I no longer have a gallery web site. Keeping the site up and running became far to complicated, involved, and costly over the years. Also the majority of the artists I represent these days have their own sites and I simply pass that info onto the customers (plus their sites are always much more cohesive, informative, and up to date)

Thanks and have a good day-Perry

Thanks for the comment, Perry. I can see where they would be hard to resist.

Does your gallery have a web site?

I have had the great pleasure over the last 8 years of being the representative for Bill and his wonderful works. He is a true delight both as an artist and as a friend. The best way for me to describe ‘the stories that take place in his images’ is to say that they are always very unique, whimsical, and intelligent. I have yet to see Bill produce anything that doesn’t totally blow me and the viewing public away. Each and every exhibition is a step above the previous exhibition (i know that statement is hard to believe…but it’s true!)I think I own more Carman’s than any other person on the planet…except maybe his wife? I have been collecting his works since the very first exhibition I had for him in 2000…it is a serious addiction I have and hopefully I never find the cure…

Thanks for the comment, Irene. I agree, I want to know what’s going on at the dinner party above left, for example…

Funny - just yesterday I was showing his work to an editor and saying telling them how much fun it is to wonder what stories are taking place in Carman’s images.
