Yesterday we went to Naples (about 45 miles south of North Ft. Myers) and met one of my dear friends, Carol Steingard. We taught foreign students (ESL) together in the 1980's. Carol is still Carol - interested in life and people and very active. They summer in their house in Lake Tahoe, and also have places in Sedona, Arizona and Boca Raton, Florida.
We socialized quite a bit in the "old days" and had fun catching up on our mutual friends and each others families. It's hard to believe that their twin granddaughters, who still live in Boca, are now 16 years old and driving!! We could have talked for hours more. I'm looking forward to hearing about the cruise they're taking soon to Copenhagen, Denmark.
Mark was busy setting up an art show at a gallery on Fifth Avenue South there in Naples, but he did join us for lunch. He's been in the fine arts business for many years and his business is called International Fine Arts. I had seen all sorts of paintings and works of art in their home for all those years but had never closely scrutinized the signatures of the artists. I had been looking at works by Salvador Dali, Marc Chagall, Picasso, Miro, and many more! If anyone's interested in investing in fine arts, Mark is the one to get in touch with!
I'm mad at myself.......I charged up both our cameras, but did I remember to take some pictures? NO! Well, suffice it to say that, both Mark and Carol are looking good!
Hello. My late husband and I met Mark and Carol Steingard on a cruise years ago. We enjoyed their company because we had a mutual love for collecting fine arts. We ended up buying a Robert Indiana hand woven tapestry, “ Chosen Love” from Mark. I have been trying to get in touch with him and for some reason my search has led me to you.
ReplyDeleteI am in the process of letting go of some of my collection which includes said Indiana tapestry I got from Mark and signed and numbered art pieces by artists: Marc Chagall, Joan Miro, Yaaco Agam, Louise Nevelson, Vaserely...If you are interested in any of these artists, email me. Thanks.
