This is Dean Stockwell the actor. I have loved
him my whole life. This evening I and a couple
of my friends spent four hours at his house sharing
art. How did this all come about? My friend J met
a new friend L and he knows Dean. J and I spent
the day with L. First, we went to a new, lovely gallery
in town, met the owners who were wonderful and spent
the afternoon visiting with them. Then we went to J's
for drinks. That is when our new friend L said "would
you two like to go to Dean's house with me?" We said
"yes"! I will not tell you any of Dean's secrets, even though
I know a few :-), but I will say that he is a lovely, sweet man.
Just as I always knew he would be. We met a bunch of other
people there and they were all sweet too. We shared our art
with him and he shared his art with us (he does wonderful
collage pieces). I just returned home and being too wired
from the day decided I might as well post a blog about it.
Some days are just perfect and this was one of those days :-).
No credit was given for this photo, but I got it here.

Wow, I'm so jealous! I've been a fan of his for ages. I just now checked IMDB to see exactly how long, and was stunned to see he was born in 1936!
And no I haven't been a fan of his since 1945 (his first appearance), I really started to like him in Quantum Leap in the early 90s.
That's awesome! He always seemed like a nice guy to me too.
WT-Somehow I knew you would be a fan of his. I started really loving him when he did"Bluevelvet".
Julie-He is as sweet as pie :-).
Wow. This is incredible. How wonderful the way this evolved. You got to meet someone you have loved and admired for years just through the unfolding of events. Have a great weekend. Suki
Kudos to you!!! What a day this must have been for you. So happy to hear Mr. Stockwell is doing well and a sweet man to boot. That makes for an memorable evening.
What a great day! -the stuff memories are made from. It sounds so cool to meet up with someone you've admired for years and just get to know them a little in a relaxed and unrushed way.
I hope this meeting of artists leads to mutual inspiration.
Best Wishes,
Melanie
Have a great time and lovely weekend :)
That's very exciting! Have you ever read Sheila O'Malley's blog The Sheila Variations? She was practically obsessing over him and had the chance to meet him a few months ago. Small world.
THAT IS SO COOL!!!!!
Thanks everyone, it was cool and I hope to be invited over again :-).
KateP-I will check Shelia out.
Dagny-missed you, glad you are back :-).
