My favorite art museum is the Musee D’Orsay. I visited it all 7 times I went to Paris when my girls were studying there. I took photos of all my favorite works and glad I did because the last visit they now prohibit photos. The Louve is great for their Vermeer, The Lacemaker.

Amy, what a great read! I like way you give depth to these individuals and that they are so much more than just artists.

I would say the most captivating was the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. I love how it was once a dwelling built with a very specific purpose in mind to give others the opportunity to enjoy what she was passionate about.

Yes, The Isabella Stewart Gardner museum! My first visit there 20+ years ago still is vivid in my memories. I’m glad you liked this interview. Dale and Stapleton have lots of gems to share and are at their gallery painting most days, doing what they do so well.

Amy, your blog is such a delightful read. You really captured the passion and dedication these two have for their art. Their varied journeys in the art world have made their present day lives so rich and interesting. Looking forward to future blog posts. Any chance of photos of the lovely menus you suggest for the artists?
