And forever chords You learned as a kid That endless hope Of all that lies ahead Could never get old Stop living in your head Chase the moments of bliss They'll outshine the bad If you believe you can be loved You'll outlive your past And you hope it never ends (at The EARL) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwOQOKxAi-9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jfjx6sj86o5w

Hey Atlanta, do you have any idea how cool your museum is? The newly reinstalled permanent collection of the @highmuseumofart will make you fall in love with this place again (or for the first time)!

Art road trip today to see The Bo Bartlett Center in Columbus and St.EOM’s Pasaquan in Buena Vista. A few years ago @boothdirector took me to visit Otis and Sandy Scarborough, see their amazing collection of @thebobartlett paintings, and hear about their dream for the Bo Bartlett Center. At that time Leviathan was in storage…it’s amazing to finally see it (and all his other works) finally on display. Pasaquan is worth the few extra miles as well!
