A FEAST OF COLOR!! 100 Images now available as prints, greeting cards...
Happy
Monday morning from Tesuque Village! - At the urging of a new friend on
Facebook, I began building a new website about four months ago. Went
through years and years of archival photography and chose what I believe
to be 100 of my best images to be included in my FINE ART AMERICA page -
there are so many choices and a multitude of combinations - regular
prints, prints on canvas, prints framed and unframed - greeting cards
for all seasons - and for the first time international sales! Please
take a peek - and if you like what you see, share this announcement with
your friends and family. My sincere thanks to all for your enthusiasm
and support through all these years. Best regards, Donna
