Dizzamn!! That IS stunning! A lot more realistic but very much like a Van Gogh.

Re: Would you go/have you been to an art museum?
On the train back outbound. I couldn't see it all in one day. Saw some Van Gogh's, Monet's, and other impressionists, Native American stuff, 3000 year old Chinese pottery, ancient Indian Statues,etc. of theirgods, African masks, Inca and Southwest figurines and pottery, but time ran out. I wanted to see the Hellenistic and Roman sculptures, but got into the Buddhas and Impressionism too much.
I had an open mind, but I don't get Picasso and Cubism...I am sorry. I did like the Old Guitarist. Impressionism is awesome. I never understood it until I saw it in real life. It's all about lighting! Who knew!! Also walked vast amounts of acreage on Michigan Avenue and Millineum Park. Beautiful day and not too cold. Saw one man sleeping in the doorway to some skyscraper, which normally doesn't bother me, but it was 37 this morning. Be cool. |
