I'm Famous, sort of.........part 2
About two weeks ago and two posts ago, I wrote about doing a vanity search of my name on the net and finding my name listed at the Danville Museum Of Fine Arts, which I thought was pretty cool, but what happened to me last Friday was even cooler. I found myself near Danville with a carpenter and suggested we go to Danville, not for the art, but to see the incredibly beautiful pre Civil War houses that line the street near the Museum, which to me are the most incredible domiciles I've ever seen, many actually look like castles. When we got up there, I suggested we check out the Museum, something I do if I can while there, since I did once have an art show in one of the galleries there in the late nineties. When I hung art there were two galleries, but now there are there, and when I walked into one gallery I found first something I didn't know existed, prints by Howard Finster. I had no idea Finster did prints, I was under the impression that all Finster work was original. I then found few other artists I had some knowledge of and was enjoying the stuff I saw when I turned around and saw one of my own paintings. I honestly had no idea it would be hanging, and really wasn't planing on going to the museum, it was a total lark. I'm glad I got there. I have no idea how long my painting will hang there, but it was cool to find it. Hopefully my stuff will hang in many museums in the future.
