Art Boy

Posted by Misty on September 9th, 2007 at 4:41 PM

Friday afternoon our doorbell rang and when I answered it was a young man trying to sell his art door to door. He had done several reproductions that he wanted to show me. I told him I was somewhat of an artist myself so my house already had a lot of art. He quickly changed tactics and asked if I would look over them and give my opinion. I said sure. He started flipping through his portfolio and got to a repro of VanGogh’s Starry Night. As soon as Eli saw it he said, “Oh Wow! That looks just like Starry Night.” I thought the man was going to fall and start worshiping at my feet since I had trained my boy so well.
