We've been to a couple of exhibits recently, neither that great, but each with a couple of nice things.
The first one was called Treasures of the Vatican, at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. The exhibit was quite well curated and very informative about the buildings of the Vatican and St Peter's. But the art itself was pretty disappointing.

Nice to see you are painting regularly now, Yosguns.
I haven't done any painting since the winter. My three artistic pursuits are gardening, painting, and quilting. But I've been doing so much travel that my creative time has been limited. First priority has been the garden work.
Right now I'm working on a quilt when it's too hot to be outside, and that has been a lot of fun. Easy to do for an hour in the evening when my body is tired.

Wow, that is beautiful, John.
It's great to have the time to do this variety of creative things, Neebee.

Phylp, my mom is a big gardener. I didn't think of it as an artistic pursuit until now! Thank you!
I need to paint more. Always need to paint more...

Commercial art. I never heard about this event.
Maybe I should check the bulletin boards more often.

We went to the Getty Tuesday to see the exhibit "London Calling" featuring some of my favorite artists.

You just gotta love Lucian Freud's work... a painter's painter. TFPU!

Paul, they had mostly his wonderful nudes, but as you know, they are probably too graphic to post here. The complexity of color on the skin is mind boggling. I actually started crying looking at them, they were so beautifully done. The exhibit said he would often clean his brush after each brush stroke. I had not heard that before.
