Season’s Greetings from Art Intercepts

holiday

 

From my laptop to yours, wishing you the merriest and happiest of whatever it is you do this time of year…  

It is my pleasure and my passion to put words on these pages, and I have been fortunate this year to grow in so many ways.  You, the audience, play a big part in that.  The world didn’t end, after all, so I’m looking forward to continuing the great ride with all of you in 2013!
