FRANCO MONDINI-RUIZ PERSONAL APPEARANCE AT TOOSIES

Texan-artist Franco Mondini-Ruiz will present his latest pop-up art sales performance, "Couture on Canvas,"

a boutique art gallery that caters to lovers of fashion, romance, humor and art. His collection,

created exclusively for Tootsies, was partially inspired by the enthusiastic support of Mickey

Rosmarin, whose eagle eye for the couture, was delighted by Mondini-Ruiz's quirky and fresh

interpretations of feminine glamour. Mickey Rosmarin has used blow ups of Mondini-Ruiz's

paintings in two seasons of Tootsies' showcase windows.
