I arrived 1.5 hours early, right at his lunch time. He greeted me with a welcome smile & took a look at my art. I found him to be a very affable man, knowledgeable & very honest. He will give you a realistic price on what your piece is worth. his rates are very reasonable & my encounter had a very happy outcome! I would strongly recommend him. In the case of the one piece I was interested in selling. He said if the gallery I went to had any Further questions then the information he provided, they could just call & he would be glad to assist. I would definitely come back. Stacy G
