I did take other images throughout the rest of the museum and will hopefully share with you soon. I left the museum feeling very inspired, especially by Tim Burton.
(not my image)
When it comes to art museums though, I am more of a Met goer then The Museum of Modern art. I love Renaissance art, I love the masters and all the mystery that lies within their paintings. I mean I do love a good modern artist and I am big on impressionism which was considered the beginning of modern art(yada yada yada, I did retain some information from those early morning Art History classes at F.I.T) Anywho, we saw some Pollock and Warhol, Matisse and Van Gogh, it was all good. Nothing like a good modern art museum visit once in awhile:)On to other things. Me and my friend are currently putting together a crop here on Long Island, so if you are reading this and you are in the NY Tri-state are, feel free to contact me on the details. It will be located within a hotel here on Long Island and will run from 9am to 12am, June 19th. Should be a great time with some raffles benefiting the MS society.
Ok, so I was tagged by sweet, sweet Danielle!
