This shop bought my art at an auction house. I never asked to be in it. Since that time I have visited the shop and tried to work with it. I love Savannah. The problem is if they are going to have online visibility, they should monitor their social media like Facebook. I have a 10 plus year net stalker old man creep. He has tried to copy my art after buying a few small works from me in 2006. He was caught and retaliated by stalking me ever since. He has gone on to social media and posted all kinds of horrible lies about me. The other galleries and collectors he posted comments on were removed by them and they blocked this guy. He got on a post on Roots Up and did the same thing. Roots Up has just left the post up promoting my art with this creeps comments on there, this has been up for a long time. I email Roots Up and they don't bother to respond. I take my art serious and that is one reason I did not want my art in this "soap on a rope" tourist shop. If you are going to have my art on there to drive people in, at least monitor your online presence. It is stupid that I have to get on Google reviews to get your attention. I know you don't care. I hope to God you never buy my art again....
