The Art & Life Gallery

Tuesday 30 October Serin and I flew down to Dalaman, were collected at the airport by Izzet Bey and by the evening attended a cocktail evening to open the exhibition at the Netsel Marina Art & Life Gallery. As I type 2 business cards on my desk of visitors to the opening were Mesut Baran from http://www.yelkendunyasi.com and Arif Olgun of www.denizbank.com
Below we see Canadians Jean and Bill Cote of www.soleilsansfin.com
They live on a yacht currently moored at Netsel Marmaris Marina. On my return to Istanbul their photos of the wall mural were the first received...
