One Man’s Reinvention of Self Leads to an Unsurpassed Fine Art Gallery
Laguna Beach, CA — December 2009 —In this economy where reinvention is essential for survival, Brian Siedlecki is a prime example of the modern business man that turned his personal tribulations into triumph. Studying both Art and Business at the University of Illinois, Chicago, Siedlecki graduated early and with honors, going to work in sales and marketing for several high-profile companies such as Beecham Products, News Corp., Insignia Systems and IBN. When faced with a life-altering illness, oral cancer, which resulted in the loss of his regular voice, Brian took the opportunity to create www.TheArtGallerist.com, an online platform for artists to sell their work around the world.
Unable to continue to physically travel and handle the demands of working in a corporate environment, Brian decided to start an online company that would leverage his business experience and fuel his passion for fine art. Theartgallerist.com is a place where you can find and buy phenomenal fine art directly from the artists and all purchases are backed by the company’s 100% Customer Satisfaction Guarantee. Brian’s experience in building businesses helped make this long awaited dream a reality.
In order to keep this guarantee, the site is and has always been juried. All artists must submit an application with examples of their work before being considered for the site. According to Siedlecki, “Artists must exhibit extraordinary technical skills, an authentic, distinctive style along with a unique and personal interpretation or point of view.”
Brian’s business venture has become home to more then 80 artists, diversifying the available artistic styles and medium while continuing to maintain the business’ very high standards.
About the Company
TheArtGallerist.com, LLC is headquartered in the beautiful seaside artist community of Laguna Beach, California. As the name implies, the company takes an active role in the online representation and promotion of only the most talented professional, emerging and student artists. For consumers, the website provides a fine art gallery experience. With three separate exhibits, powerful search and sorting tools, and other special tools that allow consumers to interact with the artists, the website makes finding that perfect piece of affordable artwork easy and stress free.

Paul West’s First Cause, for a Cause
Everything we know is until we find out otherwise.
New York, NY— January 2010 — First Cause, the debut novel by local New York author, Paul West, is a gripping work of fiction that explores human possibility. Launching his mini east coast book tour this fall, West has been hosted in Harlem, Peekskill and Brooklyn.
First Cause Reviews:
“fast-paced, gripping page turner…thought provoking”
“opened my mind to a new genre…written in a genuine, authentic and passionate manner”
“examines the nature of humanity and society…looks at both ends of the spectrum”
About the book:
On an ordinary spring day in 2008, a series of orchestrated explosions sends an already uncertain world, issuing a bizarre announcement and a cryptic threat. Conventional assumptions about human nature and potential are about to be challenged, on a scale not yet seen…
A reader that likes George Orwell, Dan Brown or Margaret Atwood, has an interest in Sci-Fi or is a history buff may enjoy this book. The book retails for $15, with additional Book Club Pricing available.
About the author:
Paul West was born and raised in New York City; he currently resides in Harlem, where he has lived for much of his life. After graduating from NYU with a B.A. in History, he worked in the education and nonprofit world for many years before switching lanes and working in advertising and then fashion. First Cause was conceived as a screenplay idea in the early 1990s, when West was still an undergraduate; he shelved the project for nearly a decade, and began work again in 1999. Paul West is a sports enthusiast, student of people, lover of music, voracious reader and fervent believer in human possibility.
