francois and me . . .


Along with Degas I LOVE - -  LOVE I tell you - -  the paintings of Francois Gall.  I wonder why no one has ever written a book about him!  He has done many, many paintings of the ballet as well as other subjects that I just absolutely love.  If I could I would produce a book filled with pages of  full color images of his work - especially the ballet.  You know what I think?  In this so-called modern age I think that any artist who has produced a great body of work should publish themselves. ( I think that with blurb books anyone can produce at least one copy!)  Let's take Catherine Jeffrey or Janett Marie (or you) for example.  Each of them has a great body of beautiful work that I think should be published in a book.  If someone published a beautiful book featuring my 'homey' Francois Gall - I would scream and laugh and dance and cry and laugh and holler and run and flip . . . I think you get the picture . . .

What on earth!, why I didn't know that Francois Gall was such a great painter?. I thank you for your information. I hope you can begin yourself giving example with publishing your book about Myra's drawings. I can promise and promise you that I'll be one of buyers.
