Mr. David C. Driskell, Carl Van Vechlen Gallery of Fine Arts, Fisk University, 18th And Jackson Street, North Nashville Tennessee 37203.
Dear Mr. Driskell:
I am sending you color slides of my art work, so that you may become acquainted with my style of art.
I am aware of your interests in the fine arts and because you happen to be an art director, I have chosen to write to you. I would appreciate very much if you will consider the task of recommending my art work to some of your constituents and to ask them if they might consider my paintings worthy of exhibition in some of their art shows.
It is my ardent hope that my paintings may inspire you enough to help me introduce them to your peers.
Very Sincerely,
Alexander B. Gavalas
ABG/ Enclosed: Please find self address env., for return of ref., mat., and color slides.
