    Welcome to our Holiday E-Newsletter! Like our new look?

    Since the holidays are right around the corner, why not consider giving the gift of art to your family and friends?

    Here's some exciting news to help you do just that....Authentic Art Consulting has just signed 7 artists to be featured on our new on-line gallery that we feel are talented, eclectic, fresh and a great addition to any bare wall that is crying for a "face-lift" (see Artist Spotlight below for details). The prices are affordable and the best thing is, art is something that is a wonderful gift for anyone on your holiday gift-giving list. Or for yourself!

    And, in addition to our on-line gallery as a source for art, you will also have the opportunity to view and purchase art at two special art events between Thanksgiving and Christmas (see Upcoming Events below).

    Finally, we have a variety of art catalogs and other resources you may want to consider for buying the right kind of artwork for any interior space.

    Give us a call today to set up an appointment and take care of all of your holiday gift-giving needs!

    Artfully yours,

    Introspection: Recent paintings by Deborah Shedrick
    Co-Sponsored by Anacostia Fine Art
    and Authentic Art Consulting

    B. Smith’s Union Station Restaurant
    50 Massachusetts Avenue, NE
    Washington, DC 20002
    Opening Reception, By Invitation Only (see below)

    On view in the Cabinet Room throughout fall 2006. In this series of large paintings, Deborah Shedrick approaches abstraction with the precision and boldness characteristic of her smaller figurative work. With her masterful use of the palette knife, rollers and assorted objects, she shapes color and builds texture in rhythmic patterns and brilliant eruptions.

    In addition to Shedrick's large abstract canvases, a variety of figurative originals in her signature style will be available. The smaller pieces are wonderful as gifts for emerging collectors.

    Lastly, we are excited to announce Shedrick will participate in Art | Basel | Miami with Black Artists of DC in December 2006. Expect to see and hear more from this rising star in the near future!

    Space is limited for the Opening Reception on November 27th. To RSVP for the reception, please click here.
