art for everybody movie

 in the late afternoon i went to see the movie 'art for everybody' at st. Anthony main in minneapolis. this was at the MSP film-fest, my last visit to this festival was pre-covid. this was a documentary about artist thomas kinkade, i was unfamiliar with who he was before seeing this movie. i guess this is an artist that sold well for a while, had galleries in various cities, and was interviewed on shows like '60 minutes'. but then there was lawsuits, bankruptcy, depression, and alcoholism that lead to death at age 54. so this doesn't sound much different than the life story of many other artists. the movie also shows his daughters discovering paintings in a vault, that were way different than what was sold in galleries or on home shopping channels. thankful i saw the movie, as this was a story that needed to be told. before i went to the movie i found some things to do. as the saying goes, 'if i'm tired of looking at something, do something about it'. so i did. in this case it was the rug next to the laptop. i vacuumed it and moved some boxes on top of it to a closet. and i decided to swap out a poster from a frame. the one i got when seeing 'drive away dolls' in march was taken out in favor of a st. paul saints poster, from winning the league championship. made sense when that frame was next to another baseball poster, the iowa cubs. i watched part of 'the simpsons' after getting back from the movie, about an urn. later on i did the dishes, then went on a walk where i found 90 cents.
