an interesting legend

[yourmother]

Any of you ever heard of Everett Ruess? He was an artist and writer of long ago who disappeared in Utah when he was only twenty. Since then someone "discovered" his work and has made him quite famous!

See how successful you can be after you're dead and gone?

anyway, Gabe, you did some cool blockprints in high school art class and I thought you might like some of this guy's stuff.

btw - I would love to see some new artwork from YOU. Got any posted?

love ya, Mom

that guy is famous for those things? they look like pretty simple block prints to me.

speaking of people who became famous for art after they died, check this guy out:

Pretty crazy stuff.

And no I don't have my artwork up yet. I will post some galleries in the Images section of the site when I get around to it.
