I was recently thinking of something that happened a few years ago. I am a painter, as in art, not houses (if you dont include the mural work that I do), and a client bought a very large framed watercolor from one of my art openings.
About 6 months later he contacted me, telling me his apartment was robbed.
The following things were NOT stolen:
- his stereo
- his tv and dvd player
- his computer
- brand new $2000 bike
But he was robbed of the following things:
- the drain strainer from the kitchen sink
- stash of condoms
- down comforter
- electric toothbrush
- ladle
- bedroom curtains
….and finally, on their way out, the robbers grabbed my painting off the wall.
Somewhere out there, someone has a stolen piece of artwork of mine. Kind of creepy. Kind of cool.
