I love some art. In fact I have an entire site with artists.
One such artist is Nick Begnaud.

Seeing actual paintings is a different experience though. When I lived in New York, I went to visit Met pretty regularly. Seeing real things is not the same as seeing jpeg and gif files on the web. For instance, to be perfectly honest, I didn’t think much about Monet previously, but the real ‘Water Lilly’ was a pretty cool painting …
When you go travel, don’t you stop at art museums …? _________________ Online Finance Education :: College Degrees |

You are right, iFA. I don't visit art galleries that much but I have been to Moma. I liked Monet's work before I saw it first hand, but I must agree that seeing it for real is that bit more special. _________________ Business Forums - Business Add URL

Another one I really liked was the work by Jackson Pollack. It’s gigantic. If you just see pictures on the web, you might say “What the …” But the real thing is pretty cool … _________________ Online Finance Education :: College Degrees |
