To commemorate the retrospective of the Veronica's Veils, the McColl Center in Charlotte published a 128p hard-cover book with 55 color plates and an essay by Richard Shiff. If you were unable to get to the exhibition and would like to acquire a copy of the book, I can sell it to you below cost due to generous support from Wachovia and Hearst Corporations. Cash or check in the amount of $30 will include shipping by priority mail. Send to Herb Jackson, P.O. Box 10, Davidson, North Carolina 28036. Be sure to include the address to which you want it shipped.

   For those in the Charlotte area, my work is always available at Christa Faut Gallery, just a short drive out 77 to exit 28.

   Specific directions: take exit 28 and go west. After you see McDonalds on your right, you will pass through 3 stoplights. The last will be at Bethel Church Rd. Go to the next right, which is Old Jetton Rd. You will see City Tavern, then look to the right and see Christa Faut Gallery on the square across from the gazebo.

   If you wish to include dinner in your plans, I recommend Splash (704 894 0026), Thai Marlai (704 892 7191), and Dressler's in Birkdale (704 987 1779).
