Delivered by hand on a cool and breezy Sunday morning ....one parchment envelope addressed to Mr O. Granger III, the inkwork less handwriting than caligraphy. Inside can be found a folded letter, written on the same thick parchment, and a small rectangle of card, business-like but bearing the unmistakeable stamp of an artist's influence.
To Mr O. Granger III By Hand 3rd April 2011
Dear Mr Granger,
Forgive me for making the assumption of correspondence with you before a formal meeting and consent. My name is Fallon Quinn; I own the Vanima Art Gallery, situated in the Marketplace (please see the enclosed business card for details of contact and location).
It has come to my attention that you are fast achieving a reputation for yourself as one of the finest young artists to wield brush or pen that the city has seen for some time. I have seen your work as displayed at the Shanachie Theatre, as well as your recent debut during Fashion Week, and I find myself utterly fascinated. To be blunt, I want more, and I am sure that the connoisseurs of the art world will be in complete agreement with me.
I am offering a period of exhibition of your work in my gallery, with a view to promoting your talents and seeing you recieved warmly into the established community already flourishing in Rhy'Din City. Do not feel you must accept or reject me off-hand - the gallery is open every day barring unforeseen incidents, and I would ask that you visit before making your decision. I understand how important a space is to the proper display of anyone's work.
Please make free to contact me via courier, telephone, or fax - I do not keep an email address active, due to an apparently inane distrust of computer technology in general. I shall look forward to hearing from you.
Yours, creatively, Fallon Quinn
