July 14th Mic unveiled a collection of his own rendering of 20 masterpieces from the famed d’Orsay Museum and the Louvre Museum. Mic is bringing Paris to Saugatuck (The White House Gallery and Bistro) in a one time summer exhibition of famous paintings such as the Mona Lisa, Whistler’s Mother and other classics by Monet, Van Gogh, Cezanne, Manet, Rembrandt, Degas and Toulouse Lautrec.
