This was posted in my other Art Forum.....I wondered if anyone might be interested? If so contact Mark Golding on 0121 475 3633. The gallery54.co.uk is his website address and the Gallery is in the Jewellery centre in Birmingham UK. Some of you may know it? 'I have opened an art gallery in the Jewellery Quarter of Birmingham and I am always short of paintings due to not finding enough artists to show me their work. It is possible to upload samples of work on the website at gallery54.co.uk. I am also about to produce a little magazine and invite artists in the West Midlands area to show their work in it. Call me on 0121 475 3633 if you want to know more. I have been trying for years to support artists and have burned all my savings on launching a gallery which has been generally ignored here. letter is from Mark Golding

Hi Marie I am a portrait artist, and have only just started drawing and painting again after 30 years of bringing up a family. My work is considered to be pretty good so I wonder whether you might be interested. At the moment I have mostly drawn family and friends, but I have done several celebrities - any interest there do you think ?

Hi Lynn Sounds good to me. You need to contact Mark who will be thrilled to hear from you I am sure, it is his Gallery not mine. The number is 0121 475 3633 Thanks for replying Marie
