Our Own Experience

Artistry’s Drigo Morin is my Managing Partner at The Firefly,  and among my dearest friends. A major reason why I like him so much is that I’ve worked with him through 1000 different challenges, and every time he comes through with grace, skill and a great sense of humor. 

Many of our artists use Drigo, especially when it really matters. If you know exactly what you require, he can find it. If you have no idea what you’re doing, it’s no problem. Whether helping a young artist to get established, or assisting a high-end collector in caring for a valuable investment, the service is invariably excellent.

He’s a dang fine painter, too. Commissions welcome.
