ArtAbandonment

Have you heard about Michael DeMeng's and Andrea Matus DeMeng's newest endeavor? Leave art for the unsuspecting! Here is the plan in Andrea's words:

"Art Abandonment is a group designed to encourage random acts of art, left in various locations around the globe. The idea is that folks can make something and leave it for a lucky unsuspecting person to find. Artists can then post locations and photos of abandoned goodies…and finders can let everyone know that they are the lucky finder! O' sweet abandon!

So leave some art. Leave a contact email for the finder…and if you get notified share the message with this group. If you prefer you can use the contact email: i.found.artwork@gmail.com we'll be checking it often and share the results. Have fun!"

I love this idea. Join in and make someone smile.

Last night we decided to take the kids to the park just before dark, and there on a tree was hanging the most beautiful piece of art, with such an appropriate message, (live out loud) with a clock and beautiful flowers, it brought tears to my eyes, I feel so lucky to have found this beautiful work of art, how can it get better than that? Thank you!!!

what a lovely surprise! I was working at the /Belleville Public Library and a patron brought me a package that she had found on a book shelf....fearful of surprises, secrets and delights(oh my!) she passed the small package on to me....lucky me! inside I found a tiny precious box with precious contents....like a valentine that has been lost for years and now has arrived in my life.rose petals, pins and the tiniest stone like a fairy's egg...and a note: "my silly heart is yours"

thanks for the random joy!!!
