1) What do you think about WAG?

I think that WAG is a beautiful way to spread awareness of an artist to art lovers and viewers. WAG is also a wonderful way to spread art throughout the world. Art is meant to be shared and the WAG is such a generous and ingenious way to disperse it. The WAG is especially meaningful to someone like me, who does not have the luxury of purchasing art.

I feel very happy to be this week's WAG winner. In my thank you letter to you I express that I was shocked and pleased because I never felt so lucky in my life. It was a real honor to have been the recipient that week.

3) What do you plan to do with the gift when you receive it?

I put the WAG up in my room. I look at it everyday and it brings me much happiness. It brings me happiness for two reasons: because the colors are joyful and the painting is beautiful and because every time I look at it I remember how special I felt to have received it.

1) What do you think about WAG?
WAG seems to be a good way to promote the gallery and gain recognition. It also gives the recipient a sense of familiarity and closeness to both the artwork, and the gallery.

2) How do you feel receiving this artist's gift?
I feel loved, and grateful for the effort put forth by the gallery to create a closer relationship with its friends.

3) Do you know what you will do with U-Chora's postcards?
I plan to send them to friends, and ask those friends to paste over the previous writing, sending them on again. I don't know how that would work exactly, but I like the idea of the images reaching many people.

4) Other comments?
I think this is a lovely idea, and you all should keep it going. Maybe consider sending the same package to random recipients in New York, to generate some talk. GOOD LUCK and XO all of you!!!
