Take Time For . . .

. . a very little art history.

Edgar Degas - portrait

Degas - Dancer's in Pink (known for paintings of dancers)

and The Dance Class


Monet's Springtime

and Madame Monet and Her Son

Eugene Boudin (known as the master of the sky)


Boudin's Trouville



I know you are too, too busy but perchance you find some downtime click on these artists name to get a little history and their beautiful works of art. Google searches of each are amazing. You can also find wonderful prints online - one source is Art.com .

And here is my homage to Claude Monet in my living room- Woman With A Parasol. I found this at Tuesday Morning years ago. You can find all sorts of great things at TM.




Thanks for letting me share. Hope you have a beautiful, colorful, invigorating and yet soothing day. 3

What great posts! Since I don't travel much, I was pretty excited when the Renoir exibit came to town! I've loved his, Luncheon of the Boating Party!
