  • fantastic

  • I have another one from same village but different painting.. do you have any clients that would want one?!  lots of jewelry fits!  (these are not cheap but only very few are known in western collections)

  • I can' think of anybody right now keen to these, but it would perfectly fit in the many primitiv artssales  going on nowadays in Paris auction houses!

    After Africa, i feel that the market is excited about anything from south east asia to the pacific!!

    Don't you still have contacts with "parcous du monde" merchants?

  • I think in Europe most of my things would be sold so much quicker.. it's true.  the shipping is exhaustive here alone can not think to ship it over seas now..  I am friendly with most of the dealers but I hardly see them  as they don't come here as they once did and also I have not been to Parcours since Rik sold the show.. he was my friend and client and owned the show.  I just spoke to him yesterday..  It was because of him and his help organizing my space etc that I did the show in the first place.
