I opened Barron mind gallery in May 2023. After Tony Karman, who’s the head of Art Expo, came to my studio and saw the potential gallery, said “it’s your money but if i were you i would do this”! He then told me to paint the walls bright white and add  track lighting and leave it mostly bare like a white box space so that my colorful paintings would shine. I added The Easel i’ve been painting on for 15 years to the corner with one of my Father’s large beautiful Midwestern landscapes. My Tibetan Monk friend Lapsang put a shroud around the painting on opening night to show respect to my father and our gift of visual art/painting. 

The light in the gallery is amazing. The gallery is across from the lake. My father would be incredibly happy and blown away by the space and my growth as an artist and human. His spirit is everywhere.
