Back from Europe

Sat Jun 6, 2009, 1:12 PM
Just got back from Europe a couple days ago. I got married on May 10 and have been in France and Spain with Jana since then. The amount and quality of art I saw on the trip was unbelievable. In paris we went to the Louvre, the Pompidou, the Gustave Moreau museum, also saw a William Blake exhibit. In Barcelona in addition to some amazing street art and Gaudi's amazing cathedral, a short train ride took us to Dali's Museum in Figueres. In Madrid we went to the Prado which has a whole room of Bosch paintings including my favorite painting in the world The Garden of Earthly Delights. Also Brueghel's masterpiece The Triumph of Death, and tons of Goya and El Greco. And one the way back I found out I'm going to be in the Smithsonian National Portrait Compitition's Exhibition in the Fall.

Your skills and ideas are insane, it's like putting all of the images I have in my head together.
It's wonderful, one of the most exceptional galleries I've found here in the last few weeks.
I've found so much inspiration in you images, thank you.
