Art Thief

What would be more glamorous than being an art thief. Think Pierce Brosnan or George Clooney or Brad Pitt. Actually I was once locked in alone in the Van Gogh Vault in the basement of the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. Well thats a story I will leave for another day. If you were able to get away with a priceless Van Gogh or Picasso, what could you do with it except stare at it. It would be too too hot to sell. Actually I have a friend that is a bonifide art thief. She goes into museums and takes microscopic pieces of art from paintings, sculpture etc. She calls it microcollecting.
