Corydon is blessed with an Artisan Center, where we can go to look at local art free gratis for nothing! We can also buy, if we find something in our price range–and the prices range, so chances are we can.
Sometimes, the Center has challenges for the local art community, and exhibits the best responses.
This particular challenge and exhibit featured … wait for it … doors!
I thought my friend Joy Brown Kirschgessner’s was the best, but I didn’t take a picture of it because I hadn’t asked her if I could. I photographed other people’s even though I hadn’t asked because I don’t know them and they won’t wallop me. Joy’s sold before they got it displayed. She rocks!
Now, Mail Pouch tobacco advertised across 22 states, so, if you live in America, you’ve probably seen one of these in real life.
After Joy’s, this actual door was my favorite:
The docent told me to check out the knob.
Thursday Doors is the brain child of Norm Frampton, photographer extraordinaire. Visit his site, enjoy his photographs, follow his instructions, and enter a world of doors.
A WRITING PROMPT FROM ME TO YOU: Write about a strange and/or beautiful door.

June 8, 2019 at 12:29pmI didn’t realize Mail Pouch spanned 22 states. That’s a pretty wide reach.
