August 10 Blog

I went to an art museum last month in Arkansas and saw my first Picasso in real life. It literally felt like I was meeting a celebrity. I didn't know how to approach it and I kind of felt nervous around it. My heart was racing all because of a famous painting... Then I saw a Monet painting... And I got to the point I was worried I may have a heart attack. When we went to MoMA in NYC I saw all these amazing, gorgeous and FAMOUS paintings by all these miraculous artists and I really could not believe my eyes. Starry Night was right in front of my face. I might of well have just met the Pope. It's funny how some paintings are that amazing. I really could compare them to celebrities. Kind of like you want to meet the star of the show because they are so good for what they do and famous- whereas the side parts aren't as exciting and you may even just walk right past them. Either way art is art and someone will appreciate it- whether I believe it is good or bad... Kind of like acting or singing. Someone will always love someones' work.

I have had such a great experience in New York and seeing ALL the different pieces of art. I'd love to come back here.
