| Haan Museum living room with three Hoosier masterpieces on the wall. [There were many more in that room.] |
A couple of weeks ago, Lily and I drove up to Lafayette, Indiana to get my painting from the 'Hoosier Women Artists: Works Selected for the Indiana Statehouse' exhibit that just ended at the Haan Mansion Museum of Indiana Art.
This museum is amazing. We met the people who restored the house from a crumbling wreck and who filled it full of the treasures of Indiana art and American furniture. We toured the house and were overwhelmed with the wonderful things there. Tickets are $10 for adults and well worth the price given that this place is packed full of rich architectural and artistic history. It will take me several more trips to fully appreciate all that is there.
On this trip I was there to pick up my painting, 'Winter White', which had hung in the Lt. Governor's offices for a year and then came here for the special exhibit of all the paintings in one place. Here it is hanging on the wall in one of the upstairs bedrooms.
Here's a full view of the piece, which, I am happy to report, is home again at last.
