Lawyer Needed
A very good artist is in the process of being ripped off out of over $50,000 worth of artwork. This artist desperately needs a lawyer to assist the artist with legal help to get the artwork back. It appears to be a very simple case where legal correspondence from a lawyer threatening legal action if the work is not returned will probably do the trick.
The artist is willing to trade art for legal assistance, as the artist is unable to afford paying one (mostly because most of the artist's money was spent preparing the art now being held by the gallery).
For anyone interested: Please email me and I'll expand further privately.
P.S. And yes, I know all about WALA. This artist still needs a lawyer.

One of my favorite poems
La Rosa BlancaBy Jose Marti
I grow a white rose
In July as in January
For the sincere friend
Who offers a hand frankly.
And for the cruel person who tears out
the heart with which I live,
I grow neither nettles nor thorns:
I grow a white rose.
