Wow Art

Pablo Picasso, self-portrait, 1907. Image from Art Quotes.
Today I spent the day at a client's home helping to place and oversee the hanging of their extensive art collection. This was the first time ever that I have handled such priceless things. I'm talking about Picasso, Calder, Magritte, Matisse, Basquiat. And not just sketches or etchings - major pieces.

Their home puts some modern art museums to shame! That's quite a way to live, being surrounded by such beautiful things.

  5. I think that art can make more of an impact in a home than just about anything else. The problem is being able to afford the really good stuff!

    You guys are making me feel way cooler than I actually am :). Thanks for the votes of confidence!
