“You have no idea of the tremendous relief you have brought from the nightmarish burden of not being able to continue working. To be able to turn the key in the lock in the studio each morning, sit down and begin mixing my palette for the day’s work is the most rewarding experience any man could hope for. Thank you one and all.”

– Painter, San Diego, CA
