   Debbie Yonkers is the owner of the White Fox Framing Gallery in North Muskegon, MI. In the gallery business for 15 years, Ms. Yonkers has carried Christian art since her current location's inception five years ago, but has made it a focus in the past two years. Among the Christian artists she carries are DiCianni, Olsen, and Reisling along with figurines by Thomas Blackshear. She will soon be opening a Thomas Kinkade Signature Gallery as well.
   
   Located in a former piano store, the 4,500-square-foot White Fox Gallery is composed of a framing gallery and several big rooms that were practice rooms at the piano store. These rooms are now theme rooms for the various genres of art Ms. Yonkers carries, such as sports, children's, nature's bounty, the Michigan collection and her Christian/inspirational room, Art with a Purpose.
   ...
   In testament to the broad appeal of Christian art, Ms. Yonkers states "This art appeals to more people than the art in any other room."
   
   While Christian art is currently less than half the inventory at White Fox Gallery, it will soon represent more than any other area, says Ms. Yonkers. In her opinion, the current crop of Christian art is filling an important void.
   ...
   Ms. Yonkers believes that there is no regionality to sales of Christian art.
   ...
   A customer looks at a [Christian] painting and then tells me something personal,"observes Ms. Yonkers.
   ...
   While most of the marketing at the White Fox Gallery is via word of mouth, Ms. Yonkers does participate in Outreach festivals where a portion of the proceeds are donated to Christian organizations, many of which are close to the particular artist's heart. She also plans to co-host a show with the Christian bookstore next door.
   ...
   According to Ms. Yonkers, although a Christian bookstore is right next-door, it does not present a competitive situation but a helpful one.
   ...
   "It is a good category if your heart is with it," says Ms. Yonkers.
