People became interested in his experience, and he felt they were fascinated with the concept that some change in life could be brought about from purchasing something at a yard sale.

He took every invitation to give some lectures at local events, speaking to students, collectors, and anyone else who would listen to his tale of adventure and excitement. He preached: keep an open mind, find beauty in the most unexpected places, don’t be afraid of the unknown. And so, his story will go around the world inspiring all, as sometimes life’s greatest surprises come when you least expect them.

He considered himself a storyteller because he also shared the journey the painting had taken as well as how it influenced his life. His story communicated to the people how surprising life is, for sometimes, one simple decision can open up doors to unexpected wonders.
