Secrets"There is more to be feared from a closed mind than closed doors" -Frank Tyger
Finally got around to framing this piece from last Wednesday. The drawing in mounted under a hidden acid free mat that keeps it from touching the glass. Rustic frame & metal key are sprayed with a clear finishing coat. Whole thing measures just under 8" x 10" and is ready to hang. Available now in my ArtSnark etsy shop with free shipping worldwide.

While we're talking about Secrets, who the heck was Frank Tyger? I went off on a googling tangent today to find out more about the man behind so many quotes. Found a dead Wiki page & this on yahoo. He may have been a reporter in NJ, he may just be a cover for misc unattributed quotations..... the man remains a mystery. I challenge you to find out what you can about the elusive Frank Tyger. If you come up with anything, please share. I do love a good mystery!

Oh, this is really really neat. I love the frame and I love, love the drawing and the key.
ReplyDeleteYes, beautifully done indeed, and I love this quote. I can't recall ever hearing of this man as well, but it looks like he was responsible for some very memorable words of wisdom.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful piece! And I love the mystery behind the quoted. I am intrigued.

All I know about him is that he said this quote {according to a link on Bing.com}: "Listening to both sides of a story will convince you that there is more to a story than both sides."
