My Uncle has an insane art collection. His house is basically an museum. It's awesome. He has a few original Clementine Hunter pieces.

If by "confirmed bachelor" you mean gay dude you would be 100% correct.

I was looking the other day if there were some Bob Ross works available. Honestly I'd like to have one. Everyone can identify with the guy in some way and I think it would be a great piece to have.

A lot of his original prints are floating around.

Audubon would paint the original scene. The lithographer would make the plate to copy it, then depending on which edition, people would repaint the lithograph by hand.

The Havell Edition (1827 - 1838)

The Bien Edition (1860)

The Amsterdam Edition (1972)

I own three:

A personal sketching by Neal Adams of my daughters

A bronze sculpture by Michel Clodion (once owned by Harry Rabinhurst)

A painting by a Louisiana artist with cerebral palsy. I bought the piece when he was first starting out. Fox News did a story on him and his artwork went through the roof.


By my count you own zero.

My cousin was a "confirmed bachelor". He taught at LSU and traveled the world. When he died we inherited his antique jukebox and other valuable which are in storage.

My late Godfather was also a "confirmed bachelor" but he had a lifelong partner. They made good money and often gave me wonderful gifts. Kinda like a fairy godmother, always there for me. He left me a print from the first jazz fest but I gave it to a cousin because she loved it and I knew she would cherish it.

I used to call him my "Fairy Godfather" which amused him greatly.

ETA: yes i have a lot of gay people in my family (all older people who have since died). It always made me wonder if there is some kind of genetic thing involved.
