Greetings!

Hello & Happy New Year!  We've got a lot of news at Rima Fine Art, and I hope you enjoy catching up on the latest in our first e-newsletter! 

We're all adjusting to a changed economic paradigm, but for each of us, our  "Home, Sweet Home" remains a refuge.  Remember us when you need a little something new, want to freshen an old favorite with new framing, or start considering masterworks as an asset class for your portfolio.  We would be happy to help.
We've Moved to a New Space!
Take our NEW Virtual Tour here!

The NEW Rima Fine Art!

Last summer, after 9 years in our original location, Rima Fine Art relocated in August to a beautiful new gallery space. We are just one block east--towards Scottsdale Road--and across Main Street from our old location, and our entire operation is conveniently now under one roof!  Our new address is 7130 East Main Street. (An added bonus is that Malee's Thai restaurant is now just across the street!)

Shortly after our move we were joined by Art Consultant Will Byrne.  Will's knowledge & enthusiam about art are impressive and infectious.  When you visit the gallery, please say hello & help us welcome him to Rima!
 
And, of course Mashu & Chino--my Pembroke Welsh Corgies-- have settled in and are officially "on duty".  Their roles as Front Perimeter Security Specialists & Customer Relationship Managers (Extraordinairre!) continue.

Our Frame Shop Came Along!
Our Custom Framing Division came along to the new space.  Have a favorite piece you'd love to freshen up?  We can help!  Bring it into our new gallery and head for the Framing Division at the back of the gallery--we have just the look to make it your new favorite!
New Artists & New Works! 
A new contemporary artist accompanied us to the new space.  Artist/photographer David Goldner's painted photographs have appeared on calendars, posters, record and magazine covers, including Playboy. In addition, David has photographed and painted an impressive list of celebrities including; Rene Russo, Kim Bassinger, Demi Moore, Delta Burke, Casandra Peterson and of course her alter ego, Elvira.We are delighted to offer his beautiful works at Rima. 
     We are also happy to welcome H.M. Saffer's wonderful, bold-toned pointillist works.  HM has had a long career as an artist, musician, producer and restauranteur.  We welcome him to Rima.
HM Saffer's Fin Du Jour IV
 
The Old Masters collection includes new offerings by Edouard Cortes, Pablo Ruiz Picasso, Pauline Pisarro and William Wendt.  Please call us for details on these pieces. The other wonderful award-winning contemporary artists in our Rima Family-- Yuri Gorbachev, Evgeni Gordiets, Joanne Miller Rafferty, Valery Yershov, Scott Wallis--also continue to send us phenomenal pieces. 

We value your business, your interest in Rima Fine Art, and your appreciation of what we do.  This is the first of a series of occasional newsletters.  If you wish to know what's happening at the gallery with more frequency, you can become our "Fan" and follow us in Facebook (Rima Fine Art in Facebook), follow us on Twitter (@RimaFineArt) or simply check our Rima Home Page, where my Facebook updates--3 or 4 per week--also appear.  And if for any reason you do not want to receive these newsletters, just click the "Safe Unsubscribe" links at either the top or bottom of this message.
