[Fwd: Deep-Pocket Customers]

Karen & Rita, The horrifying truth is that artists have always
been subject to the whims of their customers… Suppose that
Michaelangelo had followed his artistic muse, and covered the
Sistine Chapel ceiling with vermillion backdrops, devils &
burning lakes of fire? That wouldn’t have matched the Pope’s
sofa… That said, I’ll admit that carpet and sofa swatches do
very little to raise one’s self esteem. -Pete-
