Many Thanks
Every now and then you meet exceptional people. Haley Clement is one of them. She is a UF student who volunteered for The GFAA Fine Arts Fair last year.

Ribbons and Thank Yous

More importantly, I believe if my work has improved that much, then each and every one of you has the same opportunity. Six years ago I made a decision that it was time for me to be the artist I always thought I was. Now what kind of artist was that? I didn't know, because I had never had a class, didn't know the difference be
