My friend Joan is a networking genius. She now lives London, but recall how I had met her on Canyon Road in Santa Fe several years ago. She walked up to my friend I and introduced herself and began to talk about art or she asked us where we were from. Doesn't matter - she walked up to us and engaged in a conversation. For that reason I have always admired Joan as study in networking with artists and galleries. Joan has asked me to send her my new work in an e-mail like I use to.

Well, this is a little more formal than what I sent before, but here is my newest work called What's Left of Me.

And my updated website..ruthbutler.com.

Both of the images below in 5 inches x 7 inches size sold at the Haiti Art Fund Auction in New York City last month. The online auction raised over US$3500 so far. The unsold works will be added to a second auction to be announced.

To see how I constructed these large works on a small printer see my March newz.

Thanks for keeping in touch.
