And they said I’d never amount to anything as an artist. HA! say I to them, whoever they are…
My first work now hangs in a public place. OK, a semi-public place. Brian Murrell helped me hang my painting in my office at ADCO. earlier this week. I confess to having been a little worried that Brian wouldn’t want it hanging at his agency, seeing as how mine didn’t exactly turn out like a Rothko as he had intended. (Can I help it if my artistic vision leads in other directions?)
But he was very accepting and supporting — probably because my office at ADCO is upstairs, at the very back of the building. And I am now a proud new artist.
And to think, the critics said of my painting, “Hanging’s too good for it.” What do they know?
Some people frame their children’s scribbles, too.
Harrumph.
Funny. We framed some large paintings my kids made in elementary school, and invariably visitors think it’s real artwork and complement us.
So very…Brad.
P.S. I really like the top portion of the painting. “What is it?”
