I Fell In Love With Art When…
So many of us have great stories of falling in love with art. Within those happy stories are also stories of not feeling good enough, of facing insecurities and fears and doing the inner work in order to be their best creative self.

We have much more in common with each other than we had realized! – Karen Cooper, AGGV Art Rental & Sales Consultant
