Pawn Gallery

An artist is not paid for his labor but for his vision.

About Me

My Interests

"(We) were perplexed by a long rambling schmooze by a (Pawn Gallery) co-owner who'd never heard of Boyd Gallery, a previous gallery operated by agents for, and dedicated to showing the fine art of, professional graphic artists, only a few block from this one, until three years ago.

- Dallas Art Revue

Artists who wish to show their works in an anadulterated state. Art galleries, admirers and dealers who subscribe to the same theory of putting the art first and ego second.
