My work is in a museum! If my dreams come true, it’s the first of more to come (don’t know how or when, but it’s certainly a dream of mine).
on the wall at the de Young
Here’s how it all happened:
I got an email from a stranger in August. She told me of how she had received an artist-in-residence position at the de Young Museum, and she wanted to use a photo of mine as part of her inspiration wall. Would I mind? (Would I mind?!) I promptly gave her permission and my full name for a photo credit.
Today was the reception for her work, and I finally got to meet her in person after exchanging a few friendly emails. What a lovely person and a talented artist! And what an honor to have inspired her.
Shots of my photo in use and Corinne’s artist reception can be seen here.
It was a very exciting afternoon.
PS. If you’re in the SF area, you can check it out for yourself. Corinne’s residency is through January 4.
Very cool! Good for you! If I was in the area, I would certainly check it out!
Wonderful! what a christmas blessing for you!
congrads! you are and always will be a very talented artist!
You GO girl !!!
Yay Jenna! Great work and congrats!
Congratulations!! This is awesome. I can’t wait to see more of your dreams come true.
I love this story – it makes you realize how we are all so connected in so many ways, many of which we don’t even see.
SOOOOOOO cool. Your stuff should always grace a museum wall. You are so talented in so many ways. Congrats!
