Dear David, Our visit to Falmouth to be with you was indeed a pleasure. Thank you for sharing your afternoon, evening and the bounties of your garden. The lobster was a rare treat too. Most of all we appreciated having a chance to connect on so many levels. We are looking forward to celebrating the first Driscoll prize with you in March. warm regards, Lisa and Michael

Dear David Or as you are more affectionately called in Charlotte, "Dr Drizzle"
How are you? I hope that you and Thelma and your family are well. I write you today to share Barbara Chase Riboud's catalogue of new work which includes several sculptures created for her upcoming retrospective at the Philadelphia Museum of Art along with available work from earlier series.
As you can imagine her works are not priced for the faint of heart of slight of pocket but for those who can both appreciate and afford her unique, one of a kind bronze & silk sculptures. You continue to be the quintessential resource for collectors, so I ask that you recommend Barbara's work to public, corporate and personal collectors who are looking for a significant 3 dimensional work.
I specifically ask that you consider her work for the Cosby collection. It would be fantastic if that famous Philadelphia native owned a work by this Philadelphia native! He being born in July 1937 and she in June 1939. I have a list of available works slated to be included in the retrospective for your consideration. I hope your experiences working with me, will allow you to assure any referral of my integrity and professional consideration.
It is always wonderful to speak with you and I would enjoy sharing information about Barbara's new work. Please give me a call to confirm receipt of the catalogue and to chat about the possibilities.
Wishing you all the best, in all ways
