Early on I developed a very sophisticated and complex method for recruiting new artists: I find stuff on the web I like and send the artist an email. I was shocked—shocked—at how effective this method works . . .

I always get a thrill when I get a postive reply from an artist - and even more so when they send me their work to put on the Tackboard, this is especially true of Gina Triplett. Of course it’s beautiful, but like Nathan Ota, Gina’s paintings are far more layered than can be represented on a computer screen, you can either take my word for it, or better yet purchase a print.
