I was fortunate to live near the Barnes Foundation in Merion, PA (now in Philadelphia) and to visit the d’Orsay in Paris to see Renoir and other Impressionist artists, and this post made me wonder if you have visited many art museums?
Love reading the comments of your readers—all of them who love Renoir, and one who visited a museum close to her home and got to see a Renoir in person–how great is that!! 🙂
It is a wonderful community–so supportive! I was telling a friend of mine about your blog today–and how my daughter and I read your blog to learn more about art and music. There is so much beauty! Thank you for making it accessible to so many. To me–the creativeness of humans, points to the fact that we are made in the image of the Creator. Your blog helps reveal that truth to me in full color and sound. 🙂
