gpromotion and Christy's is pleased to present the latest work of Wim Griffith.

The intense and precise detail of Griffiths' work in this series transcends craft or technique. Each painting connects the audience to the characters. You reach to touch them and expect to feel the warmth of their body, it's so real.

An artists recpetion will be held Thursday November 8, 2007 from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm.
