ARTISANworks - Secure the Legacy

We gathered on July 6, 2024 to honor and remember the life of Louis Perticone, a beacon of light in the world of art, a true friend, and a visionary who lived his life with the purpose of uplifting others. Louis was not just a friend; he was a mentor, a guide, and an inspiration to many. He saw art not just as a form of expression but as a bridge connecting diverse minds and souls.

Louis founded ARTISANworks with a dream in his heart - a dream to create a space where art was accessible to all, where artists could thrive, and where the community could come together to celebrate creativity and innovation. He didn't just build a space; he built a sanctuary for creativity, a place where art is alive and pulsating with possibility.

His passion for collecting art was matched only by his commitment to supporting artists. Louis believed in the power of art to transform lives, and he dedicated his life to making sure that artists had the support and resources they needed to realize their visions. He wasn't just collecting pieces of art; he was nurturing a community, fostering relationships, and building a legacy that would outlive us all.

Louis's generosity knew no bounds. He helped people not just through his work with ARTISANworks but in countless, often unseen, ways. He had an uncanny ability to see potential in people and situations, to inspire confidence and to encourage those around him to strive for more. His belief in the goodness of people and the transformative power of art was infectious.

Now, as we remember Louis, let us not dwell on the void his passing leaves behind, but let us celebrate the incredible life he led and the profound impact he had on those fortunate enough to know him. Louis's legacy is not just in the art that adorns the walls of ARTISANworks or in the success of the artists he championed; it is in the lives he touched, the community he built, and the love he shared.

Louis Perticone, our dear friend, may have left this world, but his spirit, his vision, and his passion for art and humanity will continue to inspire and guide us. As we say goodbye, let us carry forward the lessons he taught us: to live with purpose, to support one another, and to always believe in the power of art to change the world.

Rest in peace, dear Louis. Your legacy will live on forever in our hearts and through the beauty you've helped bring into this world.

Respectfully, your loyal team at ARTISANworks
