The story goes something like this- boy meets girl, girl encourages boy to pursue his life long passion, boy listens to girl\u00a0(good boy)\u00a0and leaves his career in commercial real estate, boy and girl get married, open a restaurant (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.katiespizzaandpasta.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Katie&#8217;s Pizza &amp; Pasta in Rock Hill<\/a>), and\u00a0boy achieves international success.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_698\" style=\"width: 5130px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-698\" class=\"wp-image-698 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sroteco.com\/interior-design-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/art-collage-3.jpg\" alt=\"art collage 3\" width=\"5120\" height=\"2880\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sroteco.com\/interior-design-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/art-collage-3.jpg 5120w, https:\/\/www.sroteco.com\/interior-design-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/art-collage-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sroteco.com\/interior-design-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/art-collage-3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sroteco.com\/interior-design-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/art-collage-3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sroteco.com\/interior-design-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/art-collage-3-676x380.jpg 676w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 5120px) 100vw, 5120px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-698\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tedcollierart.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Ted Collier Fine Art<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">GRATITUDE, DRIVE AND FOCUS<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Ted Collier is proof that with enough hard work and determination your dreams can be achieved. His\u00a0new 2,500 square foot studio\/gallery space in Creve Coeur is a far cry from\u00a0the corner in the auto repair shop he was painting in just a few years ago. Today his art is featured in countless private collections in\u00a0Saint Louis, Switzerland and Australia to name a few. Ted is also experiencing commercial success. Most recently he was\u00a0commissioned by Nordstrom to create 18 pieces for their Los Angeles Flagship Store and Vancouver, BC stores. He is truly humbled by all the support and encouragement he receives. Lucky for us that only fuels his artistic fire. The sky is the limit for this Saint Louis artist and I personally can not wait to see what his future holds. #stlproud<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Ted Collier Fine Art is located in Creve Coeur, Missouri.

I joked with\u00a0him that the splatter on his boots even looks like a piece of art. When I told him I was going to mention them in the blog he sent me a photo. Guess what?
