Margaret worked for John Garrould for many years at Bertram Books in Norwich programming an IBM AS400 machine. Peter, in the other photograph was one of her colleagues a wizard crossword puzzle solver. Bertrams is probably the largest book wholesaler in the uk. They are a distribution point for almost all bookshops in the UK and are a major supplier to BOL and Amazon. The name AARTI was intended to be an acronym for Advertising Art on the Internet, but has the alternative meaning of a little prayer which most artists probably do when they exhibit their work. AARTI is based on the NorfolkSuffolk border in England. We are an online gallery only, but do have contacts in the art world. AARTI has been an online art gallery since 1998. AARTI thinks that creative people are special. How much do we value articles that are unique more than items which are manufactured or mass produced no matter how much they cost. Yet many people who can create beautiful items often go unrewarded. Many take up careers which are unrelated to their talent. Their artistic ability can only be expressed as a part time hobby. And we all lose out. We try to make it as cheap as possible for artists to use our services. Artists can join for nothing or may pay a one off minimal payment no annual renewal fee. No artist has to maintain any computer images if they choose not to and the artist does not have to update the pages. We do all the work for them.
