As some of you know, people began asking me yesterday if the sketches Ed Gulley has been creating were for sale. Ed said they were, I put three up for sale and when I woke up this morning, I saw that they all had sold almost instantly.

They each cost $100, all the money, naturally goes to the Gulley’s

I went to see Ed this afternoon, and he gave me a new batch of a dozen or more. These sketches have become so important to him, they keep his creative spark alive and also offer him a way of engaging his mind and artistry even as his body is failing him.

I’m trying to get this organized, it is an intensely busy and challenging time for me. I owe it to Ed to keep this going, if he wants to, and he wants.

So I’m going to sell the sketches one at a time, one day at a time. If you want this sketch (unframed), please e-mail me at [email protected] and if you are first, I will e-mail  you back and give you payment instructions. I will try to keep a waiting list, but can’t promise, I get hundreds, if not thousands of e-mails a day.

I scrupulously honor the true chronology, if you are first, you will certainly get a sketch, in this case, “Maggie’s Tree,” in honor of his daughter Maggie, and signed. Maria is choosing the sketches to be sold, and in what order. I’m taking care of the payments and correspondence, God help us all.

So far, so good.

So if you want this sketch, please e-mail me soonest, and I’ll take it from there. Thanks.
