"I think we've got something here..."

That's what Larry said when he saw everyone's reaction to our sample repro of Watson and the Shark.

People were coming from all over the third floor to check it out.  Even Graham Beal stopped in for a moment to take it in.  I'm beginning to gather that he is a man of few words, but he looked impressed.

People were doing double-takes as they walked past the conference room and saw a framed replica of Watson, just sitting on the table.  The real painting is not on display at the moment, so several people thought we toted it up to the third floor for the afternoon.  That's how convincing it is.

Sharing this sample with the rest of the staff did a lot for our cause.  It really seemed to get everyone excited about the project and it may have even converted a few skeptics.

My iPhone photo doesn't quite do it justice, but what we have here is a very high quality reproduction of one of the DIA's most well-known paintings.




I was so excited, I couldn't even wait for Larry to get out of the frame.  Hi Larry.
