I have just designed and posted a new website   www.connieherbergfineart.com   which will replace this site as my primary website.  (Follow the link to get there)  It will be a far better venue for viewing my artwork and allow a much easier access for me to post and edit my work .   Please redirect to the new site and add it to your favorites as this site will be shut down by the end of 2014. Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you at the new site.
