      I had the pleasure of taking in the work by artist Linda Murray during the opening week and I LOVED it! The tremendous energy and perspective she has infused her works with made viewing them special.I look forward to coming back to view them again and hope that when I return from my business trip that some savvy admirer of her work hasn't already purchased the paintings that I intend to invest in.
