Hi! My name is Sandy Hemphill and I've just signed on as the new Art History Editor at BellaOnline.com. You're getting this message from me because you've subscribed to the Art History Newsletter and I'm so glad you did.

My mission is to keep you entertained and educated so you'll continue your subscription. I'm even hoping to improve the newsletter to better suit your needs but I'll need to hear from you to accomplish that mission. Please feel free to let me know what you'd like to see here and I'll do my very best to deliver on your requests and suggestions.

I've already posted several new articles on my Art History website. Here's a link to one of them written with today's economic woes in mind. Just click on the link below the excerpt for the full story.
