\nthe ANDRE SARAIVA – Mr. A – Parisian mailboxes are going for: $4,000 a pop. each is signed and dated or otherwise notated . . . on the back.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

\nyes. they can, carry you away . . . to a better time and place.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nANDRE SARAIVA . . . must be: LOVE LETTERS for ANNABELLE . . .

\"\"<\/a>
\nANDRE SARAIVA – ‘To Paint Is To Love Again’, watercolor and ink on paper, 11.5 x 8 ins. in black frame.
\n($2,250)
\n. . . if you don’t think this romantic kind of ‘souvenir’ retro Parisian style isn’t all the rage, or going to be !! think again . . . has anybody else seen the dreamily animated FERNANDO TRUEBA & JAVIER MARISCAL Cuban jazz love letter: ‘Chico and Rita’ !! maybe ‘postcard’ from another era – is the better word.
\nit’s up for an Academy award. (Best Animated Feature Film).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nANDRE SARAIVA – ‘Mr. A PINK SQUARE’, acrylic on canvas, 12 x 12 ins.
\n($2,500)
\n(so, it’s not just about that engaging smiley face grin, it’s also about that . . . ‘winking’ eye.) <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nsmiling faces . . . going places.
